I know I posted a mention of this a few months back, but have just got an email from Paul Devereux, reminding us of it's forthcoming appearance. The Time & Mind Journal on archaeology, consciousness and culture. It's gonna be of serious interest to anyone of us enquiring about the nature of our ancient past.

[i]“This journal promises to be a bold and exciting venture – intellectually provocative with wide appeal. The articles are intriguing and the Advisory Board is impressive in terms of the diversity of perspectives represented and its scholarly excellence.”[i]
- Wendy Ashmore, University of California at Riverside

· The involvement of light and sound in monumental structures
· The phenomenology of landscape
· Ritual
· Rock art
· The multi-sensory properties of natural places from antiquity
· The cognition of memory of place
· Ecopsychology
The inaugural issue will include the following articles:
· Archaeological Evidence for Conceptual Metaphors as Enduring Knowledge Structures by David S.Whitley
· Tse’Biinaholts’a Yalti (Curved Rock that Speaks) by Richard W. Loose
· Biblical Entheogens: a Speculative Hypothesis? by Benny Shanon

For "academic" journals it's not atypical - but *coff*.

Hi all!
Got my copy of this earlier - at last!!! Some of you will like it, some won't. The NewAge folks would like some of the stuff on 'feelings' at sites, as evidenced in neurophys-scans, but won't like the language or manner in which it's presented. Oh well... - y' can please some of the people some of the time, etc...
From subjective effects at sites (via the ritual religious modes), an article on Biblical psychoactives is thrown at us aswell (but the catchword 'entheogens' is used here). I'll sink mi teeth into this one later!
There's also Chaco Canyon singing stones; much about prehistoric rock art and the shamanic connections; an interview with Pete Fowler (one of Britain's main landscape archaeo's at the mo); a disturbingly reductionist analysis of the devil on Dartmoor from our old mate Jeremy Harte (though he is mainly focusing on the evolution of one particular tale); book reviews from the likes of Ron Hutton, George Nash, Jenni Westwood - and more.
You aint subscribed? You think you're up-to-date? Get this damn journal!
