‎Inside Out: Gender and Ageing Agency in Urban and Non-urban Religious Spaces in Antiquity‎

‎Summary Religious spaces in Antiquity could be urban (located in a densely populated area), suburban (within a day's walk of the city), or even extra-urban (located far outside the city walls, and away from the hustle of densely populated areas). They also served very different purposes, with urban sanctuaries often serving local socio-political dynamics, while extra-urban spaces were often founded to allow meditation - or for the exercise of political control over a particular territory. But while the importance of different religious spaces has long been known, up to now, very little attention has been paid to the activities of women and children within these religious spaces. This volume aims to investigate the role that these actors played in Antiquity, both in urban and non-urban sanctuaries and in funerary contexts, in order to see how they fitted into this sacral environment, and in turn, how such sanctuaries were shaped by their presence. Different chapters within the volume explore key questions such as: can religious experiences shape urban landscapes? can urban space influence religious experiences and activities? and what role did women and children play in shaping and linking religious activities and spaces? The result is a far-reaching volume that seeks to highlight the hitherto unrecognized role of women and children in shaping the social, economic, sacral, and even political landscapes of sacred spaces.

‎Limiting Spaces. The Attribution of Spatial Meaning through the Creation of Boundaries‎

‎, Brepols, 2025 Hardback, Pages: 187, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:69 b/w, 14 col., 4 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503617497.‎

‎Summary This volume explores how boundaries were created, perceived, and experienced in past societies. Bringing together diverse theoretical and methodological approaches - from cognitive and processual to sensory and phenomenological - the contributors examine how spatial meaning is attributed through the creation and negotiation of boundaries. The volume is structured into three thematic sections: the first investigates how boundaries define and characterize space; the second focuses on the act of crossing boundaries and its role in shaping spatial significance; and the third examines the experience of boundaries, of their crossing, and of the spaces contained within them. Drawing on case studies from Prehistory to the Early Modern period, and spanning regions from Europe and Africa to Central Asia, the chapters reflect a wide range of archaeological traditions and perspectives. Through innovative analyses and interdisciplinary dialogue, this collection advances our understanding of how past societies organized, perceived, and interacted with space.
