Description

This book explores how comics transmit knowledge of the past and shape our understanding of society and politics. From an archaeological perspective, it examines the representation and narrative use of material cultures in comics.

The volume delves into the power inherent in drawn images, featuring reception studies and contributions from comic creators. The six chapters aim to address central questions about the role of images in shaping our perceptions.

By investigating the intersection of comics and archaeology, this book sheds new light on how visual representations can influence our understanding of history and its impact on society.
