Описание: Contemporary archaeology has moved away from a purely, or purist, object-oriented approach, and concerns itself with multiple associations, layerings, scalar analyses, and specializations. This talk focuses on my research on Neolithic figurines—once the domain of artistic descriptions and quasi-religious projections—is situated within a diachronic spatial analysis, clay sourcing, and manufacture, and similarly involves ascertaining the volumes of midden deposits, comparisons with the percentages of species in faunal assemblages, considerations of human body shape from isotopic data extracted from human bone, and so on. In archaeology, such chains of evidence and associations build a greater richness and understanding of things, but in doing so perhaps things lose their boundedness, their discrete qualities, and what makes them special or separate.
