ar345 gaelic and colonial society 1350-1650 (compulsory)
Module Summary
|
The primary aim of this course is to build general and micro-scalar interpretative narratives about native and incoming peoples in the period c.1350–1650 through an exploration of their settlements, material culture and contextual histories. The module is grounded in the theory and methods of Old World historical archaeology in which the efficancy of all types of late medieval ( c. 1350-1500) and early post-medieval ( c. 1500-1650) material culture, from artefacts to landscapes, buildings and text, are valued in the genertion of interpretations of the past. N.B. The module includes a compulsory field class which will be held on Saturday 2nd February. 2013. |
