Short description:
This book explores the intersections of mapping and historical archaeology and the ways in which mapping can generate new archaeological data and contribute to methodological and theoretical problems in historical archaeology. The chapters engage with diverse material remains?from travel writing to newspaper reports and colonial records to maps themselves?and also contemporary medical supplies, the architectural ruins along the Silk Road, nineteenth-century foundations in a company town, brick rubble, contemporary city landscapes, and ceramics. There are four key themes explored in the book: the interplay between invisibility and visibility; the visualization of embodied experiences; the use of maps to elucidate and problematize power and resistance, and the emancipatory potentials of mapping within the context of heritage practices and community collaboration. This book is of interest to students and researchers in historical archaeology and anthropology.
Previously published as a special issue in the Journal: International Journal of Historical Archaeology "Includes a Special Issue on Beyond (within, through) the Grid: Mapping and Historical Archaeology".
