A Journey into Ancient and Contemporary
Humanity through Poetry and Archaeology
Created By
A. C. Geraghty
and
P. C. Sidebottom
Today's experience is tomorrow's archaeology.
This website is a sample of our work in progress. Our main theme
is an interdisciplinary depiction of the consistency and continuity of humanity. To this end, we have merged
contemporary poetry with photography of prehistoric and Medieval art and landscapes.
We place strong emphasis upon woman and her self image, using poetry to express
her varying roles and relationships. Family, unity, love, need and passion, are only some of the facets which remain
unchanged in our makeup.
In an effort to establish greater understanding of the arts and antiquity, we
offer a variety of links to literary, archaeological and geographical
websites. Each page on this site contains links related to it's content. Our International Related Links page is devoted solely to Archaeological and Literay links.
Response from visitors is welcome and we will consider the addition of any links which may benefit this site.
We are available for presentational speaking and
poetic delivery and may be reached by links throughout this site or
by using the email box below. To learn more about us, you may wish to read our following biographies.
Thank you for visiting Between These Shores.
