Historical Archaeology: A Structural Approach in an African Culture (Contributions in Intercultural and Comparative Studies)

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. This book is in excellent condition, no wear to covers, previous owner signed first inner page. No other markings inner pages, spine intact, no creases. "Peter Schmidt's impacts on archaeology and African history are theoretical, substantive, and pragmatic. Since the 1970s, his initiatives in Africa have fostered research, institution building, and heritage advocacy. Trained as an archaeologist and historian, Schmidt's approach to archaeology is inclusive, methodologically sophisticated, grounded in structural and symbolic theory, and politically aware (Schmidt 1978, 1983a, b, 1997, 2010; Schmidt & Patterson 1995). His scholarship makes informed representations of Africa and Africans. He highlights the long-term pasts of eastern Africa by integrating material, ethnographic, oral historical, documentary, and environmental sources (Schmidt 1978, 1983a, 1997; for conspectus, see Schmidt 2006)."

Archaeologies of Listening
Language: English
Published by University Press of Florida, US, 2022
ISBN 10: 0813068800 ISBN 13: 9780813068800
Seller: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Archaeologists tend to rely on scientific methods to reconstruct past histories, an approach that can alienate local indigenous populations and limit the potential of archaeological research. Essays in this volume argue that listening to and learning from local and descendant communities is vital for interpreting the histories and heritage values of archaeological sites.Case studies from around the world demonstrate how a humanistic perspective with people-centric practice decolonizes the discipline by unlocking an intellectual space and collaborative role for indigenous people. These examples show how listening to oral traditions has opened up broader understandings of ancient rituals in Tanzania-where indigenous knowledge paved the way to significant archaeological finds about local iron technology. Archaeologists working with owners of traditional food ovens in Northern Australia discovered the function of mysterious earth mounds nearby, and the involvement of local communities in the interpretation of the Sigiriya World Heritage Site in Sri Lanka led to a better understanding of indigenous values. The ethical implications for positioning archaeology as a way to bridge divisions are also explored. In a case study from Northern Ireland, researchers risked sparking further conflict by listening to competing narratives about the country's political past, and a study of archival records from nineteenth-century grave excavations in British Columbia, where remains were taken without local permission, reveals why indigenous people in the region still regard archaeology with deep suspicion.The value of cultural apprenticeship to those who have long-term relationships with the landscape is nearly forgotten today, contributors argue. This volume points the way to a reawakening of the core principles of anthropology in archaeology and heritage studies.Contributors: Peter Schmidt Alice Kehoe Kathryn Weedman Arthur Catherine Carlson Billy Ó Foghlú Audrey Horning Steve Mrozowski George Nicholas Innocent Pikirayi Jonathan Walz Camina Weasel Moccasin Jagath Weerasinghe.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. "An important book at a time when the booming illicit trade in African antiquities and the despoiling of some of the continent's prime archeological sites generate little concern in the art world." -Foreign Affairs "This benchmark publication challenges all of us to be part of the solution. Plundering Africa's Past cannot help but raise the level of discourse and consciousness about the looting problem, what needs to be done to stop it and about the relationship between Africa and the West." -African Studies Review "Plundering Africa's Past should be required reading for all archaeologists, historians, art historians, museum curators, and government officials involved in the cultural heritages of Africa, as well as most countries and continents with a disappearing past." -H-Net Book Review African government and museum officials, members of international agencies, academics, and journalists examine why the African past is disappearing at a rate perhaps unmatched in any other part of the world. Each looks at the international network of looting and trafficking from a different perspective. Here, for the first time, is a frank indictment of African contributions to the problem-voiced by the distinguished African essayists. The book concludes with a discussion of specific steps that could halt the disappearance of Africa's art and antiquities.
