Abstract:
Summary. By exploring an Early Neolithic site this paper demonstrates how landscapes are constituted from connected places and, in turn, how places are constituted by materials. The paper aims to develop an approach that acknowledges the role of memory and emotion within this, and posits that these factors are crucial to how senses of place and community were formed in this period. By considering memory and emotion the paper demonstrates their centrality to any human experience of landscape.Document Type: Research article
