Sinamai un-disciplines and decolonializes archaeology and highlights aspects of the landscape that have been impacted by colonial legislations, nationalization, and internationalization. This book provides new perspectives on the landscape, and it addresses debates among African and Western archaeologists in reforming the practice, interpretation, and construction of archaeological narratives in Africa. Sinamai debunks Western myths by exploring African heritage through diverse knowledge systems to illuminate our understanding of place. Each chapter unfurls a variety of facets within Great Zimbabwe, discovering what a place can mean, how it shapes culture, and what emotions and memories can be evoked through local narratives. This book goes beyond human memory and shows how the landscape also remembers. African knowledge systems are essential to the development and understanding of African archaeology and African heritage management systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAshton Sinamai\u003c\/b\u003e is honorary associate at La Trobe University.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 178\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 29, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67592489304338,"sku":"9781666926903","price":170.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/2211\/5346\/files\/2gNSCtAUwO9781666926903.webp?v=1790862654","url":"https:\/\/ckbookstore.net\/products\/understanding-cultural-landscape-at-great-zimbabwe-realms-of-power-hardcover","provider":"CK BOOKSTORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
