Knowledge and Power in Prehistoric Societies: Orality, Memory and the Transmission of Culture
Kelly, Lynne (La Trobe University, Victoria)
This book offers new insights into the purpose of ancient monuments through an analysis of the methods by which oral cultures maintain a vast store of pragmatic knowledge. Lynne Kelly considers how the Australian Aboriginal, Native American, African, Pacific, and European cultures stored and transmitted knowledge in the absence of writing.
