Abstract

Much has been written about how undifferentiated space, or ‘wilderness’, can over time coalesce into the specificity of ‘place’ through the deposition of cultural sediment. The process usually entails some form of sedentariness whose origins may range from simple cessation of wandering to full-blown colonial settlement.¹ By contrast, the present account seeks to describe how a sense of place may also be engendered through dynamic means, particularly the action of walking.
