Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
it is argued that current archaeological concerns with viewing and all things visual are predicated upon a series of assumptions that have so far escaped serious consideration, and that this resulted from the way in which concerns with mapping and analysing patterns of seeing and looking in the past emerged before any broader critical consideration of the senses per se. It is also argued that to place an interpretative premium upon viewing space is to accept that vision as a perceptual category was meaningful to those under study, and that it, above all else, shaped and structured understanding to the point that it can profitably be represented and analysed in complete isolation from all other sensory stimuli. In this paper the authors argue that vision should be folded back into the mix of the sensorium, and sketch two potential pathways for achieving this |
