Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -There has been an increasing archaeological interest in human-animal-nature relations, where archaeology has shifted from a focus on deciphering meaning, or understanding symbols and the social construction of the landscape to an ac…knowledgement of how things, places and the environment contribute with their own agencies to the shaping of relations.This means that the environment cannot be regarded as a blank space that landscape meaning is projected onto. Parallel to this, the field of environmental humanities poses the question of how to work with the intermeshing of humans and their surroundings.To allow the environment back in as an active agent of change, means that landscape archaeology can deal better with issues such as global warming, an escalating loss of biodiversity as well as increasingly toxic environment. However, this does not leave human agency out of the equation. It is humans who reinforce the environmental challenges of today.The scholarly field of the humanities deal with questions like how is meaning attributed, what cultural factors drive human action, what role is played by ethics, how is landscape experienced emotionally, as well as how concepts derived from art, literature, and history function in such processes of meaning attribution and other cultural processes. This humanities approach is of outmost importance when dealing with climate and environmental challenges ahead and we need a new landscape archaeology that meets these challenges, but also that meets well across disciplinary boundaries. Here inspiration can be found in discussions with scholars in the emerging field of Environmental Humanities.ContentsEnvironmental humanities a rethinking of landscape archaeology Sjoerd Kluiving, Kerstin Lidén, Christina FredengrenNature and society: an integrated multi-perspective landscape approach in practiceOscar JacobssonTravel books as landscape archaeology reports: from history to ecological responsibility: The Example of British and American Travellers in the PyreneesFrancoise BessonFragments of the Wild: Wordsworth's Yew Trees and Contemporary ArchaeologyAndrew HoaenGeological and historical findings reveal differential anthropogenic substrate control in unique streets of Diemen, The NetherlandsRonald van Gelder, Sjoerd Kluiving, Inger Leemans, Ruben den Ouden, Jan GoedhartRe-thinking Deep Time LandscapesChristina Fredengren 108 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume represents a bold attempt by the editors to bring scholars from distinct research orientations together, to discuss the interplay between the geographic and social dimensions of different kinds of interaction networks.Wi…thin the humanities, networks afford an umbrella of approaches to the study of social relations and their patterning, both through qualitative and quantitative applications, with two main perspectives standing out: those centered on space and those concerned with the social dimension of interaction. In this book, we aim to highlight the potential for integrating these different research directions and identify common ground for developing new interdisciplinary insights.The volume demonstrates how a network approach can successfully incorporate and frame different kinds of theoretical perspectives and methodological applications, drawing on multiple strands of social and geographical theory and using data as diverse as archaeological artefacts, roads/infrastructure, textual sources, and information from living informants. As such, it will appeal to archaeologists, historians, geographers, and sociologists, as well as anyone interested in exploring further the potential for employing network-based methodologies within the Humanities and Social Sciences, and in enriching their understanding of the theoretical and interdisciplinary underpinnings of widely employed concepts in network science.The volume stems from a workshop held at the Freie Universität Berlin which was funded and hosted by the Excellence Cluster Topoi.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book brings together 30 papers by leading scholars in the field of usewear and residue analysis. This publication aims to revive the debate on the role of traceology (use-wear and residues) in multidisciplinary approaches that…address archaeological questions. Many studies on technological aspects of material culture deal with specific material categories (e.g. flint, ceramics, bone), often in separate or isolated ways, and this division does not really reflect the integrated nature of technical systems in which different material categories are in dynamic interaction.Hence, exploring the interaction between different chaînes opératoires is crucial for a more global concept of the toolkit with all its components and it is a precondition for paleo-ethnographic reconstructions of technical systems and economies. Starting from a functional perspective, the papers in this book explore various topics such as apprenticeship, group dynamics, social status, economy, technological evolution, spatial organization, mobility patterns and territories, or adaptations to cultural and environmental changes.This collection of papers, presented at the AWRANA conference in 2018, constitutes a major sign of the dynamism, popularity and scientific importance of our discipline in current archaeological research.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This volume is a collection of 19 articles in three sections reporting on recent research on the archaeology of shipwrecks, harbours, and maritime landscapes in the Mediterranean region. The shipwrecks section looks at excavated vessels… from Mazotos, Modi Island, the port of Rhodes, Naples, and Narbonne, as well as a sailing reconstruction of the Mäagan Mikhael ship. The harbours section includes articles on areas from the Levant to Seville looking at a variety of harbour defence systems and dockyards dating from the Hellenistic period to the 12th century AD. Articles in the third section on maritime cultural landscapes combine data sets to examine human interactions with the sea: navigation from the perspectives of the accounts of early geographers, the skills required by the earliest sailors, and the contextual reconstruction of sea routes; coastal survey and resource use; and geoarchaeological evidence used to analyse the choice of harbour location. This book will be of interest to students and archaeologists researching the Mediterranean region, and all interested in a wide range of recent advances in maritime archaeology.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 370 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In 2012, a chance encounter between a curator and a century-old expedition journal occurred in the archives of a Cambridge museum. The journal was written by a young anthropologist, Paul Denys Montague, and recorded his travels in the Sout…h Pacific Islands of New Caledonia in 1914, where he became fascinated with the culture of the local Kanak people. Returning to Cambridge at the outbreak of World War One, Montague deposited his journal and a collection of Kanak objects in the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology and left to join the Royal Flying Corps. A talented artist, musician and member of Rupert Brooke's 'Neo-pagan' set, his promising career was cut short when his plane was shot down in Salonika in 1917.Montague's research and the objects he collected lay untouched for a century. Their rediscovery brought these materials and the histories they contained to new life, opening up a range of contemporary connections between past and present, Britain and New Caledonia, Europeans and Kanak, the idea of the museum and the art of curation.Museum, Magic, Memory explores the complex encounters between history, biography, museology and collecting that characterise the work of curation in the twenty-first century.This books is part of the Pacific Presences series.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -(Dutch language book) Some 3000 to 3500 years ago a number of barrows were erected in an area now known as the Slabroekse Heide (Uden, N.-Br.). In the following centuries people were regularly buried here, and between circa 800 and…500 BC a small urnfield evolved with several hundred small mounds on the heath. These burial monuments covered the cremated remains of the dead, which were generally buried in urns.A unique inhumation burial in which a man or woman was interred lying on his or her back in a small chamber carefully constructed from charred oak beams also dates from this period. Here the deceased was dressed in a colorful dress with long sleeves and wore metal rings in her hair. Extraordinary bronze bracelets and anklets adorned the limbs, and pins and toiletries were interred as grave goods.Several centuries later, during the Roman Age, the cemetery was once again used as a place of burial. Following this, the area went out of use, and the dead buried here were slowly lost to time. In the late Middle Ages a so-called landweer was constructed, running straight through the cemetery and marking the border between the vrije heerlijkheid Ravenstein and the dukedom Brabant. In the 1950s the mounds were removed from the landscape and the area was taken into use as an agricultural field.But this is not where the story ends ¿ in 2003 Staatsbosbeheer took ownership of the land and following the excavation in 2010 the Slabroekse Heide cemetery was (re)constructed. Today the area is part of the nature reserve the Maashort and accessible for recreational use, and contributes to the primal feeling that this regions wants to evoke.This book presents the results of three excavation campaigns conducted at this special place. In 1923, Remouchamps of the National Museum of Antiquities explored this area. In 2005 and 2010 the Faculty of Archaeology and Archol bv further researched this cemetery using modern techniques, which allow us to reconstruct the use of the cemetery and the special inhumation funerary ritual in detail, thereby bringing these mounds on the heath back to life. 344 pp. Niederländisch.
