Correlative Archaeology: Rethinking Archaeological Theory - Paperback

by Fumi Arakawa (Author), Jim Enote (Contribution by), Octavius Seowtewa (Contribution by)

In Correlative Archaeology, Fumi Arakawa applies correlative thinking practices, which are derived from an East Asian view of the world that stresses connectivity, to archaeological interpretations. Arakawa, a Japanese scholar who was trained in Western archaeology, argues that a correlative paradigm can help archaeologists, as well as scholars and researchers from other disciplines, consider competing paradigms and integrate Native American voices and narratives into interpretations of prehistoric art and landscapes.
