    The Archaeology of Religion: Cultures and Their Beliefs in Worldwide Context

    Sharon R. Steadman, "The Archaeology of Religion: Cultures and Their Beliefs in Worldwide Context"
    English | ISBN: 1032106395 | 2023 | 436 pages | EPUB | 20 MB

    The new and updated edition of The Archaeology of Religion explores how archaeology interprets past religions, offering insights into how archaeologists seek out the religious, ritual, and symbolic meaning behind what they discover in their research.
    The book includes case studies from around the world, from the study of Upper Palaeolithic and hunter-gatherer religions to religious structures and practices in complex societies of the Americas, Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, and China. Steadman also includes chapters on the origins and development of key contemporary religions―Judaism, Christianity, Islam, among others―to provide an historical and comparative context. Three main themes are threaded throughout the book. These main themes involve the intersection between cultural and religious structures (“religion reflects culture”), including the importance of environment in shaping a culture’s religion, the role religion can sometimes play as a method of social control, and the role religion can sometimes play as a key component in revitalizing a culture.
