Abstract: |
the paper considers how perceptions of the Irish Sea are transformed along a journey that leads from Neolithic occupation sites near the shoreline of Cumbria, to major stone axe sources in the high mountains of the Lake District. The author suggests that archaeologists try to disentangle their assumptions from the actual observations made in the landscape, thereby revealing a more fluid and dynamic world than might otherwise be anticipated; the simplistic use of concepts such as `intervisibility' is questioned, and a more reflexive and critical approach to landscape fieldwork is suggested |
