This book offers an analysis of archaeological imagery based on new
materialist approaches. Reassessing the representational paradigm
of archaeological image analysis, it argues for the importance of
ontology, redefining images as material processes or events that
draw together differing aspects of the world. The book is divided
into three sections: 'Emergent images', which focuses on practices
of making; 'Images as process', which examines the making and role
of images in prehistoric societies; and 'Unfolding images', which
focuses on how images change as they are made and circulated.
Featuring contributions from archaeologists, Egyptologists,
anthropologists and artists, it highlights the multiple role of
images in prehistoric and historic societies, while demonstrating
that scholars need to recognise their dynamic and changeable
character. -- .
