| >> the latter with intellectual surroundings, including deposits and the questions >> that give them meaning." Well, one of the questions that give them meaning is surely the setting! As you say, the landscape that surrounds them. Context can not be limited to the soil around a buried artifact. If you find a bowl what is its context? The soil around it? The ring of post holes that form the house it was last used in? The enclosure the house was built inside? The field system around the enclosure? The valley that the fields are in? The mountain range that the valley is part of? Who says where it ends? Reply | with quote |  11th February 2006ce 16:12 In reply to: Re: Thornborough on the Beeb (nigelswift) |
