Seeing and Knowing: Understanding Rock Art with and without Ethnography

Seeing and Knowing: Understanding Rock Art with and without Ethnography

Benjamin Smith
3/5 ( ratings)
The purpose of Seeing and Knowing is to demonstrate the depth and wide geographical impact of David Lewis-Williams' contribution to rock art research by emphasizing theory and methodology drawn from ethnography. Contributors explore what it means to understand and learn from rock art, and a contrast is drawn between those sites where it is possible to provide a modern, ethnographic context, and those sites where it is not. This is the definitive guide to the interplay between ethnography and rock art interpretation, and it is an ideal resource for students and researchers alike.
