Abstract

This paper is an attempt to highlight some methodological issues for the examination of archaeological site visibility. It is based upon the concept of predictive visibility templates within the domain of Geographical Information Systems. The research presented here is an exploration of the potential for the recently appropriated methodologial tools, specifically GIS, to extant archaeologial data for the identification of visibility templates (Carver 1990) incorporating a synthesis of selected environmental and cultural factors.
