I visited it early in March and was greeted on entering with a digital display of some of the major stone circles of the British Isles. Thereafter, the exhibition was laid out as a series of themed areas. The first section, 'Working With Nature', touches on the Mesolithic period that preceded the arrival of the early farmers and the Neolithic and Bronze Age. It includes two headdresses manufactured from deer skulls, one taken from the many that were found at Star Carr and the other from a female burial of what seems to have been a shaman, from Germany. The similarity between these is of no surprise since Britain and the continent were still linked by a land bridge at the time of the Star Carr settlement and the nomadic Mesolithic peoples would have moved freely between Britain and mainland Europe. A fine selection of jadeite axes found in Britain and a massive display of other European polished stone axes showcase the objects often regarded as definitive of the Neolithic. There is also an image of the burial of a pair of oxen together with a cart and the information that oxen were used in the construction of monuments like Stonehenge. In this section the establishment of Stonehenge as the circular monument that exists today is discussed, very briefly. We move on to the section entitled 'Sermons in Stones'. Much of this is devoted to artistic representations on stone and other materials. Thus we have a fine collection of carved stone balls from North East Scotland, the Folkton Drums from Yorkshire, the glorious Knowth macehead together with stones from Northern Britain marked with cup and ring. There are shared motifs among these objects – the eyebrows, the spirals, the concentric rings. There are also a couple of large anthropomorphic stones from Southern Europe whose design includes motifs clearly intended as sun imagery. The section includes reference to the Orcadian civilisation, in particular Skara Brae and the Ness of Brodgar, and to the great tombs of Ireland. Next up is 'Seahenge'. Dendro-dating has precisely determined the date for its construction to 2049 BCE so it was in use at the same time as Stonehenge. This wooden circle from Holme-next-the-Sea has been recreated in the Museum, oriented so that, as the curators say, they ‘have managed to align the monument so that you can see the sun rising and setting through the doorway of the monument’. The inclusion of Seahenge is to give an idea of the smaller circles that were being used by family groups, perhaps, for ceremonies.

The snake symbol initially represented an attempt at ‘reaching out’ as forager societies incorporated a prominent figure in the mythologies of incoming societies into their own – a figure which became a symbolic reference to cross-cultural symbiosis and admixture. Reflecting the long history of such contact, the ritual uses and ontological positions of snakes in contemporary knowledge systems of the Maloti-Drakensberg are coherent with those of earlier societies. This offers fertile ground for novel forms of interpretation. Using contextual historic and modern ethnographic material, this paper presents a relational account of regional idioms. It dwells on the language of taming and domestication that permeate these ethnographies, and the concern they show for the mitigation of ‘wild’, sometimes ‘monstrous’, consequences of spiritual power in the social world. Symbolic resolutions of these consequences are discernible in rock art images, particularly those of snakes, demonstrating the ritual brokerage of relations between human and non-human communities, with both forms of agency depicted in various states of ‘domestication’, bridging forager and farmer understandings of human–animal relations.","PeriodicalId":43900,"journal":{"name":"Time & Mind-The Journal of Archaeology Consciousness and Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81720657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aptly defined as a global phenomenon that transcends time and space (Goldhahn 2019), rock art and its potential in conveying people’s worldviews is the common thread running through the first three papers in this volume. We start off in the Maloti Drakensberg mountains of southern Africa, where Andrew Skinner and Sam Challis discuss the vast repertoire of snake carvings in rock art, traditionally interpreted as a symbolic reference to cross-cultural encounters as forager societies started incorporating external elements into their communities. Based on historical and ethnographic sources, the authors investigate the role of snakes and similar monstrous figures in contemporary mythologies through the lens of language and regional idioms. The resulting picture reflects a symbolism coherent with that observed in earlier societies’ carved imagery, shedding light on the mutual agency and complex relationship between human and non-human actors. Max Carocci brings us to the Northern Plains region stretching from South Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas to Minnesota and Iowa, where rock art imagery is abundantly documented over a long time span (from 1000 BCE to historical times). Within such a vast and diverse iconographic repertoire, Carocci’s account focuses on a specific theme, male genitalia, which appears to have been of special relevance to Plains Indian culture. In a similar vein to Skinner and Challis’ study of snake representations, Carocci integrates archaeological, historical and ethnographic materials to reassess the meaning of phallic imagery beyond the traditional interpretations revolving around shamanism and fertility. The many modes of representations and differing contexts illustrated by the author reveal a multiplicity of worldviews sedimented in one iconic symbol that expresses the multifaceted concept of masculinity in both the spiritual and secular domains of Plains Indian culture. The contribution by Marja Ahola and Katri Lassilla shifts from the formal attributes of rock art and their many symbolic meanings to the performative practices that infused life into those carved scenes. It is widely agreed that rock depictions provided a visual script to storytellers, who through the expert use of light and darkness, shadow play and sounds could animate static images and deliver a much more vivid narration. According to Ahola and Lassilla, material traces of such performative arts may be sought also outside the realm of rock TIME AND MIND 2022, VOL. 15, NO. 2, 97–99 https://doi.org/10.1080/1751696X.2022.2133817","PeriodicalId":43900,"journal":{"name":"Time & Mind-The Journal of Archaeology Consciousness and Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82938625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
