- W2719543341 abstract "A theoretical reasoning that employs the concept of ‘materiality’ explains that materials are always meaningfully constituted and play an active role in mediating our understanding of society. Since we usually understand the structure of society through our experience of day-to-day social activities, which usually involve engagements with materials, our recognition of society is often achieved with reference to the meaningful materials involved in this social experience. However, the meaning of materials does not intrinsically reside in materials per se but is arbitrary given as they are engaged with by us in this very process and may vary according to the context of engagements. This idea suggests that in order to understand the social significance of past material culture to the fullest possible extent archaeologists must pay more attention to the way in which material artefacts were engaged with by past people rather than to the physical and typological features of artefacts. From this perspective this paper investigates the social meaning of obsidian artefacts and their role in mediating people's recognition of social relationships between Neolithic communities, particularly focusing on the exchange of obsidian and its use for the production of stone tools at the sites of Tell el-Kerkh and Akarçay Tepe in the north Levant. It is assumed that for the people at these sites obsidian used for stone tools, such as side-blow blade-flakes, corner-thinned blades and projectile points, was the meaningful material that embodied the social relationships with their exchange partners of obsidian, and then such meaningful obsidian in turn served as an active medium in enhancing and maintaining those social relationships. Studying the social relationships in such a way enables us to understand the cultural affinities between Neolithic communities in a different way from a conventional approach, which has often overemphasised typology of chipped stone artefacts." @default.
