Archaeologies of mobility and movement

Beaudry, Mary Carolyn, 1950- (Added Author). Parno, Travis G. (Added Author).

Summary: "This collection of essays in Archaeologies of Mobility and Movement draws inspiration from current archaeological interest in the movement of individuals, things, and ideas in the recent past. Movement is fundamentally concerned with the relationship(s) among time, object, person, and space. The volume argues that understanding movement in the past requires a shift away from traditional, fieldwork-based archaeological ontologies towards fluid, trajectory-based studies."--Provided by publisher
