Reviews

(This Book) seeks to fill a lacuna in the academic study of alternative interests in archaeological sites. -- The authors stress that sacredness is constituted within discourse, that landscape and all its components have agency, and that for dialogue to occur, everyone involved must abandon the idea of a single truth. This is an important and highly recommended book. -- Michael York, Bath Spa University.
