Materiality of time and temporality of place

ABSTRACT Archaeology is only possible because time materializes. However, archaeology is not concerned with the traces of time and change in general, but with those traces that humans left. In this paper, I focus on the conditions that enable time to manifest. For archaeology, time, space and place play a fundamental role. Place is the texture of space. Space becomes concrete to us through places and establishes the world in which we live. According to the French phenomenologist Maurice Merleau-Ponty, the lived body movement is the pivotal element in understanding the body–place relationship because our body is neither in space, nor in time; rather, it inhabits space and time. This paper will show that the entanglement of body, place and time provides valuable new insights for archaeological practice.
