Abstract
LEIBOWICZ, Iván. ¿Es posible una arqueología de la experiencia?. Cuicuilco [online]. 2015, vol.22, n.63, pp.257-272. ISSN 0185-1659.
Aimed at unveiling some of the perceptions and experiences that people may have had when dwelling in different towns and villages in the past, possibilities are being discussed with a view to adopting a phenomenological approach to archaeological records. Therefore, the pertinence of certain concepts and precepts from phenomenology being used as analytical and methodological tools will be taken into account, in preference to a rigid theoretical outline. Accordingly, I aim to demonstrate the potential of what I refer to as "experiential studies," and how this idea may work in collaboration with independent lines of research so as to achieve a deeper understanding of past societies.
Keywords : experience; phenomenology; perceptions; landscapes; archaeology.
