Landscape in Mind: Dialogue on Space between Anthropology and Archaeology

George Dimitriadis 2009 © BAR Publishing

The contributors to the present volume were asked to variously address its central theme from perspectives offered by jointly anthropological and archaeological approaches, as well as to engage some of the philosophical implications of landscape as highly interdisciplinary concept – one, which can and does draw upon a range of life and physical sciences.
