Recent efforts to engage more explicitly with the interpretation of
emotions in archaeology have sought new approaches and terminology
to encourage archaeologists to take emotions seriously. This is
part of a growing awareness of the importance of senses-what we
see, smell, hear, and feel-in the constitution and reconstitution
of past social and cultural lives. Yet research on emotion in
archaeology remains limited, despite the fact that such states
underpin many studies of socio-cultural transformation. The
Archaeology of Anxiety draws together papers that examine the local
complexities of anxiety as well as the variable stimuli-class or
factional struggle, warfare, community construction and
maintenance, personal turmoil, and responsibilities to (and
relationships with) the dead-that may generate emotional responses
of fear, anxiousness, worry, and concern. The goal of this timely
volume is to present fresh research that addresses the material
dimension of rites and performances related to the mitigation and
negotiation of anxiety as well as the role of material culture and
landscapes in constituting and even creating periods or episodes of
anxiety.
