ABSTRACT
The study of prehistoric sites and landscapes is approached from a number of often divergent perspectives, which tend to polarise between the essentially ‘processual’ (e.g. Edwards 1998) through to the ‘sensual/experiential’ (e.g. Tilley 1994). This broad span of approaches to the study of the past generates a wide range of information that although diverse, may not always be mutually exclusive. However, attempts to integrate the different paradigms remain few and far between and as such the potential synergy that might result from closer integration often remains largely unrealised (Chapman and Gearey 2000).
