Across many regions, the materiality of rural settlements, particularly their domestic context, tends to be poorly studied and represented. Furthermore, between Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages (4th to 12th centuries), the countryside was greatly transformed: changing settlement patterns, trade routes and connections all contributed to the emergence of new modes of living.
Mirroring Worlds aims to connect the domestic spaces of rural settlements from these periods with other rural contexts, such as cemeteries or production areas, which were also part of the living and organisational dynamics of the communities that inhabited them. Particularly, it focuses on approaches that study faunal, environmental, spatial or bioarchaeological data arising from funerary contexts, husbandry and crop dynamics, and/or production centres and domestic spaces, with the aim of gaining more knowledge on the associated rural settlements and/or of integrating pre-existing knowledge. Additionally, the contributions present new findings that result from systematic excavations in the broader context of landscape archaeology and that by the use of new technologies (geomagnetic, spectrometers, Lidar, drones, etc.) and archaeometric analyses, provide promising and accurate new data. Topics include human-animal or human-plant interactions, trade and exchange, populational dynamics (such as domestic and industrial spaces related to materiality), paleoenvironment, landscape archaeology, and living conditions, all expressly connected to the rural domestic settlements they represent.
