Human cognition does not rest upon individual minds alone but is distributed across persons, things, and \ntime. Archeology, the discipline of things par excellence, has much to offer to researchers interested in \ncognitive processes. The material world is crucial in processes of enculturation and cultural transmission, \nin shaping daily experience and perceptions, and in orienting action. In this chapter, the concept of \nmaterial culture is examined as it is commonly understood today in archeology and material culture \nstudies. Furthermore, the diverse roles of material culture in relation to cognition are explored through \nspecifi c examples from prehistoric, historic, and contemporary societies.
