Archaeologies of risk and wonder

Benjamin Alberti

In this statement, I argue that one way for archaeology to realize the potential of its materials to tell us something different about the past is to confront the question of alterity, understood as the ontological difference that lies at the roots of much archaeological material. If we accept alterity as a starting point of analysis then we stand a chance of challenging the strictures of interpretive frameworks that foreclose the possibility of encountering something new. Methodologically and theoretically I argue for risk-taking, especially taking on conceptual resources from indigenous thinkers and adopting a stance of wonder in the face of our materials which can open up unsuspected archaeological realities.

风险与奇迹的考古学

在这篇声明中,我认为考古学要实现其材料的潜力来告诉我们关于过去的一些不同的东西的一种方法是面对异质性的问题,这种差异性被理解为存在于许多考古材料根源的本体论差异。如果我们接受异质性作为分析的起点,那么我们就有机会挑战解释框架的限制,这些限制排除了遇到新事物的可能性。在方法论和理论上,我主张冒险,尤其是从本土思想家那里获取概念资源,并在我们的材料面前采取一种惊奇的立场,这可能会打开意想不到的考古现实。
