Inhalt
What did artefacts, buildings, and things mean for humans in the past? What did humans mean when they created things, objects or buildings? What kind of perceptive and cognitive processes drove humans prior to and during the production process?
Due to interdisciplinary research in the last few decades, our knowledge on how objects, things and buildings were made has become more detailed, but it is still a huge challenge to understand the mental processes and processes of decision-making which drove human production of objects in the past. In the course, we will look more closely at the theoretical and practical background of how collective needs, functional purposes and concepts played together in the processes of production of objects in prehistoric times, what these objects came to mean for people using them and how we can understand those underlying layers of meaning.
We will discuss topics and case studies from prehistoric Europe ranging from the Mesolithic until the Late Bronze Age period.
