Movement is fundamental for all human activities, and as such, it comprises the essential act of weaving places into the web of landscape. Places are not so much defined by their location, their boundaries or shape, but through the flows and convergences experienced within them. Whereas places are gatherings continuously on the move, herding is embodied movement. Pastoralist societies guide animals between pastures, settlements, water sources, and salt licks. Through mobility, they weave relations between distant places, things, and people. For herders, to travel through the landscape is also to travel through time, as movement resonates with the seasonal changes in the landscape
