Handbook of Landscape Archaeology

Edited by Bruno David and Julian Thomas

June 2008, 800 pages, $129.00 cloth



Over the past three decades, "landscape" has become an umbrella term to
describe many different strands of archaeology. From the processualist study
of settlement patterns to the phenomenologist's experience of the natural
world, from human impact on past environments to the environment'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.
