Abstract
A variety of visual material has always been part of the archaeological record, and the share and significance of this data has only increased with new technologies in recent decades. It is in reaction to this and with a wish to diversify the mediation of archaeological research that NAR introduces Visual Essays as a new format in its portfolio of academic publication. The essays follow the established aim of the journal to communicate the diversity of archaeological practice, ranging from microscopic details to landscape and aerial approaches, through intricate combinations of visual and textual mediation
期刊介绍:
Norwegian Archaeological Review published since 1968, aims to be an interface between archaeological research in the Nordic countries and global archaeological trends, a meeting ground for current discussion of theoretical and methodical problems on an international scientific level. The main focus is on the European area, but discussions based upon results from other parts of the world are also welcomed. The comments of specialists, along with the author"s reply, are given as an addendum to selected articles. The Journal is also receptive to uninvited opinions and comments on a wider scope of archaeological themes, e.g. articles in Norwegian Archaeological Review or other journals, monographies, conferences.
