Description
This long awaited book discusses both ancient and modern shamanism, demonstrating its longevity and spatial distribution.
The book is divided into eleven thought-provoking chapters that are organised into three sections: mind-body, nature, and culture.
It discusses the clear associations with this sometimes little-understood ritualised practice, and asks what shamanism is and if tangible evidence can be extracted from a largely fragmentary archaeological record. The book offers a novel portrayal of the material culture of shamanism by collating carefully selected studies by specialists from three different continents, promoting a series of new perspectives on this idiosyncratic and sometimes intangible phenomenon.
