Stonehenge Landscape Book and CD-ROM
Stonehenge Landscapes - Journeys through real-and-imagined worlds,
by Sally Exon, Vince Gaffney, Ann Woodward, Ron Yorston
"Stonehenge Landscapes" is the largest digital analysis of the
archaeological landscape and monuments of Stonehenge ever attempted. The
study uses data from more than 1200 monuments. The contents of the
Stonehenge barrows are collated for the first time and presented in a
series of appendices. The result of this endeavour is a major
phenomenological study of the development of the Stonehenge landscape from
the Mesolithic to the Early Bronze Age.
The authors explain how the landscape
emerged over time, the developing relationships between the public monuments, and
how these monuments created new spaces for social action in prehistory.
The way monuments were used and perceived is discussed and the results
are demonstrated through interactive software which displays GIS data, animations of movement
along monuments and through the landscape, as well as 3-dimensional
views of the landscape, panoramic photographs and videos. Uniquely, the
reader can access all the data through their web browser,
permitting them to perform their own studies and produce their own reading
of the landscape of Stonehenge. "Stonehenge Landscapes" is a radical step forward
in archaeological publishing, integrating computing and phenomenological study: permitting new insights into
a well-known landscape and allowing the reader to participate in the study and
interpretation of the results.
'Stonehenge Lanscapes' CD-ROM includes a software program to display various
data sets. The copyright owner of this program is Ronald Yorston. Archaeopress
holds a licence to distribute the program as part of the electronic version of
'Stonehenge Landscapes'.
