| Description: |
Using the pioneering research as David Lewis-Williams as a foundation, contributors from around the world examine how the availability of ethnographic analogies, or lack thereof, affect the interpretation of rock art. |
| Synopsis: |
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 is an ideal resource for students and researchers alike. |
