Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book draws on the evidence of landscape archaeology, palaeoenvironmental studies, ethnohistory and animal tracking to address the neglected topic of how we identify and interpret past patterns of movement in the landscape. It challenges the pessimism of previous generations which regarded prehistoric routes such as hollow ways as generally undatable. The premise is that archaeologists tend to focus on ‘sites’ while neglecting the patterns of habitual movement that made them part of living landscapes. Evidence of past movement is considered in a multi-scalar way from the individual footprint to the long distance path including the traces created in vegetation by animal and human movement. It is argued that routes may be perpetuated over long timescales creating landscape structures which influence the activities of subsequent generations. In other instances radical changes of axes of communication and landscape structures provide evidence of upheaval and social change. Palaeoenvironmental and ethnohistorical evidence from the American North West coast sets the scene with evidence for the effects of burning, animal movement, faeces deposition and transplantation which can create readable routes along which are favoured resources. Evidence from European hunter-gatherer sites hints at similar practices of niche construction on a range of spatial scales. On a local scale, footprints help to establish axes of movement, the locations of lost settlements and activity areas. Wood trackways likewise provide evidence of favoured patterns of movement and past settlement location. Among early farming communities alignments of burial mounds, enclosure entrances and other monuments indicate axes of communication. From the middle Bronze Age in Europe there is more clearly defined evidence of trackways flanked by ditches and fields. Landscape scale survey and excavation enables the dating of trackways using spatial relationships with dated features and many examples indicate long-term continuity of routeways. Where fields flank routeways a range of methods, including scientific approaches, provide dates. Prehistorians have often assumed that Ridgeways provided the main axes of early movement but there is little evidence for their early origins and rather better evidence for early routes crossing topography and providing connections between different environmental zones. The book concludes with a case study of the Weald of South East England which demonstrates that some axes of cross topographic movement used as droveways, and generally considered as early medieval, can be shown to be of prehistoric origin. One reason that dryland routes have proved difficult to recognise is that insufficient attention has been paid to the parts played by riverine and maritime longer distance communication. It is argued that understanding the origins of the paths we use today contributes to appreciation of the distinctive qualities of landscapes. Appreciation will help to bring about effective strategies for conservation of mutual benefit to people and wildlife by maintaining and enhancing corridors of connectivity between different landscape zones including fragmented nature reserves and valued places. In these ways an understanding of past routeways can contribute to sustainable landscapes, communities and quality of life

Download or read book Making our Way through the World written by Margaret S. Archer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-06-14 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we reflect upon ourselves and our concerns in relation to society, and vice versa? Human reflexivity works through 'internal conversations' using language, but also emotions, sensations and images. Most people acknowledge this 'inner-dialogue' and can report upon it. However, little research has been conducted on 'internal conversations' and how they mediate between our ultimate concerns and the social contexts we confront. In this book, Margaret Archer argues that reflexivity is progressively replacing routine action in late modernity, shaping how ordinary people make their way through the world. Using interviewees' life and work histories, she shows how 'internal conversations' guide the occupations people seek, keep or quit; their stances towards structural constraints and enablements; and their resulting patterns of social mobility.

Download or read book THE PHILOSOPHY BOOK COSMOCELLULAR HYPOTHESIS written by Dr Kamlesh Patel and published by Dhruv Publication (Self Publication). This book was released on with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You cannot ignore the fact that some time or the other, you are in search of the truth of life, death and the purpose of your very existence. This book, biologically and exobiologically, explains about life which is just a dynamic expression of nature’s special nonmolecular-energy waves at the different physical platforms like special molecular levels of the ecosystem of the earth. And these molecular levels are biologically called different living species. And this dynamic exchange of energy is scientifically explained to answer the query ‘Nothing lives forever; yet, life continues, since evolution of the first life on earth.’ In short, every era has one such epic (Granth) and Cosmocellular Hypothesis is undoubtedly an upcoming epic (as millennium-metaphysics) of this new era. It took the author more than 22 years in Vedic research work under strictly-neutral scrutinization of modern-science’s laws. Thus, it shows nature’s science (ancient Vedic science) in comparison to modern science (Machine Science), i.e. from East to West, for the youth of the 21st century. And this is reflected in every paragraph of this book Cosmocellular Hypothesis—A Journey from Meditation To Modern-Medicine that leaves every reader dumbstruck, by presenting him some still-unrevealed great mysteries of his own life and his home—the universe.

Download or read book Making and Unmaking Ancient Memory written by Martine De Marre and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-04-20 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making and Unmaking Ancient Memory explores the way in which ancient Greeks and Romans represented their past, and in turn how modern literature and scholarship has approached the reception and transmission of some aspects of ancient culture. The contributions, organised into three sections – Political Legacies, Religious Identities, and Literary Traditions – explore case studies in memory and reception of the past. Through studying the techniques and strategies of ancient historiography, biography, hagiography, and art, as well as their effectiveness, this volume demonstrates how humanity has inevitably conveyed memory and history with (sub)conscious biases and preconceived ideas. In the current age of alternative facts, fake news, and post-truth discourses, these chapters highlight that such phenomena are by no means a recent development. This book offers valuable scholarly perspectives to academics and scholars interested in memory, historiography, and representations of the past in the ancient world, as well as those working on literary traditions and reception studies more broadly.
