Handbook of Landscape Archaeology (World Archaeological Congress Research Handbooks in Archaeology)

Over the past three decades, â‚¬Å“landscapeâ‚¬Â has become an umbrella term to describe many different strands of archaeology. From the processualist study of settlement patterns to the phenomenologistâ‚¬s experience of the natural world, from human impact on past environments to the environmentâ‚¬s impact on human thought, action, and interaction, the term has been used. In this volume, for the first time, over 80 archaeologists from three continents attempt a comprehensive definition of the ideas and practices of landscape archaeology, covering the theoretical and the practical, the research and conservation, and encasing the term in a global framework. As a basic reference volume for landscape archaeology, this volume will be the benchmark for decades to come. All royalties on this Handbook are donated to the World Archaeological Congress.
