The Seasonal and the Material

The Seasonal and the Material aims at three things. To test what new knowledge can be generated when we bring together scholars working in different regions and specialists in different periods through an overarching lens. To see what happens when scholars apply seasonality as this overarching lens to their ethnographic and archaeological material. And finally, to question perspectives on how we can best view human and non-human beings through the lens of temporality and seasonality. The contributions from different subfields of anthropology were originally presented at a session at VANDA: Vienna Anthropology Days 2022, organized by the editors in Vienna.With contributions byAugusto S.
