Settlement, Society and Cognition in Human Evolution : Landscapes in Mind PDF
Edited by Fiona Coward, Robert Hosfield, Matt Pope, Francis Wenban-Smith
Description
This volume provides a landscape narrative of early hominin evolution, linking conventional material and geographic aspects of the early archaeological record with wider and more elusive social, cognitive and symbolic landscapes.
It seeks to move beyond a limiting notion of early hominin culture and behaviour as dictated solely by the environment to present the early hominin world as the outcome of a dynamic dialogue between the physical environment and its perception and habitation by active agents.
This international group of contributors presents theoretically informed yet empirically based perspectives on hominin and human landscapes.
