Book Synopsis El Mirón Cave, Cantabrian Spain by : Lawrence Guy Straus
Download or read book El Mirón Cave, Cantabrian Spain written by Lawrence Guy Straus and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2012-04-16 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though known as a site since 1903, El Mirón Cave in the Cantabrian Mountains of northern Spain remained unexcavated until a team from the universities of New Mexico and Cantabria began ongoing excavations in 1996. This large, deeply stratified cave allowed the team to apply cutting-edge techniques of excavation, recording, and multidisciplinary analysis in the meticulous study of a site that has become a new reference sequence for the classic Cantabrian region. The excavations uncovered the long history of human occupation of the cave, extending from the end of the Middle Paleolithic, through the Upper Paleolithic, up to the modern era. This volume comprehensively describes the background information on the setting, the site, the chronology, and the sedimentology. It then focuses on the biological and archaeological records of the Holocene levels pertaining to Mesolithic, Neolithic, Chalcolithic, and Bronze Age. Archaeologists, anthropologists, and historians will be drawn to this study and its extensive findings, dated by some seventy-five radiocarbon assays.

Book Synopsis Plants and People by : Alexandre Chevalier
Download or read book Plants and People written by Alexandre Chevalier and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first monograph in the EARTH series, The dynamics of non-industrial agriculture: 8,000 years of resilience and innovation, approaches the great variety of agricultural practices in human terms. It focuses on the relationship between plants and people, the complexity of agricultural processes and their organisation within particular communities and societies. Collaborative European research among archaeologists, archaeobotanists, ethnographers, historians and agronomists using a broad analytical scale of investigation seeks to establish new common ground for integrating different approaches. By means of interdisciplinary examples, this book showcases the relationship between people and plants across wide ranging and diverse spatial and temporal milieus, including crop diversity, the use of wild foodstuffs, social context, status and choices of food plants.
Book Synopsis Coastal Systems by : Simon K. Haslett
Download or read book Coastal Systems written by Simon K. Haslett and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2016-07-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where oceans, land and atmosphere meet, three dynamic forces contribute to the physical and ecological evolution of coastlines. Coasts are responsive systems, dynamic with identifiable inputs and outputs of energy and material. In chapters illustrated and furnished with topical case studies from around the world, this book establishes the importance of coasts within a systems framework - waves, tides, rivers and sea-level change all play critical roles in the evolution of our coasts.

Book Synopsis Integrating Zooarchaeology and Paleoethnobotany by : Amber VanDerwarker
Download or read book Integrating Zooarchaeology and Paleoethnobotany written by Amber VanDerwarker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-01-22 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, scholars have emphasized the need for more holistic subsistence analyses, and collaborative publications towards this endeavor have become more numerous in the literature. However, there are relatively few attempts to qualitatively integrate zooarchaeological (animal) and paleoethnobotanical (plant) data, and even fewer attempts to quantitatively integrate these two types of subsistence evidence. Given the vastly different methods used in recovering and quantifying these data, not to mention their different preservational histories, it is no wonder that so few have undertaken this problem. Integrating Zooarchaeology and Paleoethnobotany takes the lead in tackling this important issue by addressing the methodological limitations of data integration, proposing new methods and innovative ways of using established methods, and highlighting case studies that successfully employ these methods to shed new light on ancient foodways. The volume challenges the perception that plant and animal foodways are distinct and contends that the separation of the analysis of archaeological plant and animal remains sets up a false dichotomy between these portions of the diet. In advocating qualitative and quantitative data integration, the volume establishes a clear set of methods for (1) determining the suitability of data integration in any particular case, and (2) carrying out an integrated qualitative or quantitative approach.
Book Synopsis Pleistocene and Holocene Hunter-gatherers in Iberia and the Gibraltar Strait by : Robert Sala
Download or read book Pleistocene and Holocene Hunter-gatherers in Iberia and the Gibraltar Strait written by Robert Sala and published by White Tiger Books. This book was released on 2014 with total page 765 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume aims to offer an up-to-date summary of knowledge relating to human predatory societies settled in Iberia. The archaeological record of the region is essential for the reconstruction of human evolution in Europe in biological, behavioural and cultural domains as it reserves the earliest and more significant records of the humanization of the continent and because it allows the reconstruction of the main trends in that process. This is possible thanks to a rich, large and complete record, encompassing all the stages of that development and all the adaptive and cultural modes. Moreover, the discovery of that record is amongst the earliest known archaeological occurrences in the history of archaeology. The book offers a systematic presentation of the current empirical data written by the same research teams already working every year on site excavations. Included is current knowledge of the main archaeo-palaeontological sites with the most significant records. Sites are arranged in eight physiographic and geological regions, with the aim of making clear the adaptive ways of human societies to similar environments. Over 400 illustrations, tables and figures, most in colour.

Book Synopsis From Foragers to Farmers by : Ehud Weiss
Download or read book From Foragers to Farmers written by Ehud Weiss and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2009-08-01 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume celebrates the career of archaebotanist Professor Gordon C. Hillman. Twenty-eight papers cover a wide range of topics reflecting the great influence that Hillman has had in the field of archaeobotany. Many of his favourite research topics are covered, the body of the text being split into four sections: Personal reflections on Professor Hillman's career; archaeobotanical theory and method; ethnoarchaeological and cultural studies; and ancient plant use from sites and regions around the world. The collection demonstrates, as Gordon Hillman believes, that the study of archaebotany is not only valuable, but vital for any study of humanity.
