Finding Faith in the Landscape

This session will build upon the session entitled 'Finding Faith in the Past' that was held at X-TAG in 2006. One of the themes to emerge from that session was a concern that the archaeology of religion cannot be confined to site-specific studies. It was argued that if we are to gain a contextual understanding of religious experience in the past then we must explore the ways in which the sacred was situated within the landscape.
