Bodies, houses and gardens: rhythmanalysis of Neolithic life-ways
Paper discusses the ways in which rhythmic temporality of yearly course was woven into the way people lived, experienced and transformed their life in the Balkans Neolithic. It examines how routine social and material practices on gardens that were structured within a year extend their duration to the lifecourse of people, objects, generations and historical change. By attending the garden during the year, people not only observe the process of growth, but actively participate in it. The generative and regenerative powers of gardens are maintained through work and accumulation of substances, which originate from elsewhere, house, midden, animal pens. This flow of substances is not only way of linking houses, gardens, animals and people in a web of relations, but also creates the history of the particular plot. Through the agency of gardens, the substances of humans, plants, animals and ancestors become intertwined and feed into each other. ; Članek se ukvarja z ritmi letnega cikla v neolitiku Balkana. Poglavitno vprašanje, s katerim se ukvarjamo je, kako so materialne in družbene prakse letnega cikla postale del življenjskih zgodb ljudi, predmetov, menjav generacij ter tako ustvarjale zgodovino. Skozi delo na vrtu ljudje niso le opazovali procesa rasti, temveč so v njem aktivno sodelovali. Moč vrta, da obrodi in obnovi, so vzdrževali s kopičenjem snovi iz hiš in odpadkov iz živalskih obor. Ta tok snovi ni le povezal hiš in vrtov, ljudi, živali in rastlin v omrežje družbenih odnosov, temveč tako tudi ustvarjal zgodovino posameznega vrta. Vrtovi so tako igrali aktivno vlogo pri prepletanju tokov snovi med ljudmi, živalmi in predniki in pri ustvarjanju povezav med njimi.
