The first textbook of geoarchaeology provides an excellent introduction to a multifaceted discipline that is related to archaeology as well as to physical geography and other geosciences. The overview of the broad methodological diversity of geoarchaeology makes this book a reliable reference for students, researchers and practitioners. It is therefore an indispensable tool for all those who deal with questions of environmental and cultural history.
Geoarchaeological issues are among the most popular topics within the disciplines involved. By deciphering geoarchives using modern dating and analysis methods and interdisciplinary approaches, it is possible to locate past cultures within their environment and reconstruct past landscapes. Especially in the age of global change, it seems all the more important to understand conditions, processes and dynamics of the past, not least in order to be able to apply insights gained to future developments.
The book was compiled byscientists from more than 30 different university institutes, authorities and research institutions. The editors are spokespersons for the Geoarchaeology Working Group, which was founded in 2004. Their more than 70 co-authors are among the most knowledgeable experts on their subjects in the German-speaking world and beyond.
