Phenomenology
A method of studying the past envrionment that focuses on sensory experiences of a place and explores how it was perceived and moved through
Emphasis on bodily engagement
Christopher Tilley (1994)
Key proposer of phenomenology
Argued archaeologists should physically walk ancient landscapes and monuments, using their own bodily experience as a methodological window into past perceptions.
Julian Thomas (1993, 1996, 2001)
Used phenomenology to critique Cartesian positivism and argue that objects and landscapes are never perceived neutrally
They are always encountered as something with cultural meaning
Debate
GIS vs Experienced based methods represents a Positivist approach against a phenomenological one
