Show PostChapter 8 of the #HierotopoiLibrary is here! 📚✨ Today we move beyond just "looking" at ruins and dive into the sensory world of antiquity with Yannis Hamilakis’ "Archaeology and the Senses" (2013). What did a sacred landscape sound and smell like? 🧵👇

Love this line of work. In my Namibia fieldwork the lesson ran parallel: places become sacred by being tended, not found. Among the OvaHerero, the holy fire and the graves it faces make the ground what it is. Landscape as something kept, not just inhabited.
