Fluid to Solid – Petrification as an Interpretive Concept for Social and Material Change
Petrification Processes in Matter and Society
Theory in Central European Archaeology
Different languages. An interview on archaeology in Germany with Friedrich Lüth
This is an interview about archaeology in Germany and beyond. Friedrich Lüth, currently president of the European Association of Archaeologists, among other positions, talks about archaeological practice and thought in Germany and Europe and the relationship between both. Is German pre- and protohistoric archaeology still best known for its disciplined approaches to material evidence and the thoroughness with regard to the data (Härke 1989)? Are …

Cremated Bones - a biological Source for Gender Research
This article presents a project designed for prehistoric gender research. It focuses on the late Bronze Age to early Iron Age urnfield in Cottbus "Alvensleben-Kaserne", Brandenburg. The cremation remains were emptied from the urns layer by layer. This provided excellent conditions for a critical reconstruction of the funeral rituals related to the cremation. Detailed recording of each bone fragment in each layer made possible the discovery of the…

Reflexiveness’ in archaeology, nationalism, and Europeanism
Reflexiveness’ is a term used for the growth of discussions in archaeology on its history, epistemology, and social relevance. While much of this reflecting refers to the relation of archaeology and nationalism, leading to insights into the politicisation of archaeological research and presentation to the public and the use of the past for ideological purposes, still we can witness many parallels to the use of prehistory for the creation of a Eur…

Landscape Archaeology
Taking German Siedlungsarchäologie as its starting point and background this article attempts to turn from a critique of traditional approaches in settlement archaeology to a new definition of landscape and a new apporach in landscape archaeology. Landscape is defined via its constituting parts: space, place, and boundary. From here a theory of landscape is developed as the plenum which is at the same time a passive social and economic resource a…
Death and Continuity
This article suggests that the common appearance of cultural ('midden') material under barrows of the Trichterbecher culture is interpreted as the purposeful metaphor of continuity of the small-scale society that has just suffered the loss of one or more of its actors. The three stages of rites de passage as outlined by van Gennep are used to explain the mortuary rituals further. Separation was signified by the enclosure (ditch or palisade) aroun…
