Case studies from Greco-Roman antiquity to northern Europe, and the Indus Valley, present diverse archaeological, art-historical, museological, and heritage perspectives into the ever-progressing lives of artefacts, monuments, and museum collections. The authors examine provenance, collections histories, shifting meanings of artefacts in post-colonial settings, and the role of museums in shaping narratives. Framed within the theoretical discourse of object biography, contributions reveal how the entanglements of things are in a constant state of motion, and how contexts of use, circulation, and analysis are socially and politically defined. This is a rich resource for anyone interested in the complex lives of things and the interplay between people, artefacts, and the institutions that house and study them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"British Archaeological Reports (Oxford) Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47883044421783,"sku":"9781407363721","price":7304.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781407363721.webp?v=1781099037","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/in-and-out-of-context-objects-and-their-itineraries-in-museums-collections-and-storerooms-9781407363721","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
