  4. 3. Skeuomorphs what art thou? A skeuomorphic perspective on material preference and categorisation in prehistory

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Arkeologi

    Author : Alice Larsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Skeuomorphism; material properties; material categorisation; material preference; material perception; material interpretation; affordance; cultural spheres; reflexive methodology; archaeological terminology; imitation; original; centre and periphery; metaphorical material; meaningful material; southwestern French Aurignacian; ivory beads; south Scandinavian neolithic; flint daggers; History and Archaeology;
