Chris Tilley offers a kinaesthetic approach to understanding ancient landscapes, one that uses the full body and all the senses, through examples of rock art and megalithic architecture in Norway, Ireland, and Sweden.
"The understanding and interpretation of ancient architecture, landscapes, and art has always been viewed through an iconographic lens - a cognitive process based on traditional practices in art history. But ancient people did not ascribe their visions on canvas, rather on hills, stones, and fields. Thus, Chris Tilley argues, the iconographic approach falls short of understanding how ancient people interacted with their imagery."
