Modul M7-T: Landschaftsarchäologie
Comments
Qualification objectives:
Students will have knowledge of modern interdisciplinary issues and research approaches in landscape archaeology. They will be familiar with the interactions between human settlement behavior, forms of land use and economic activity, and the surrounding natural space in synchronistic and diachronic perspectives, and with the fundamentals of prehistoric cultural landscape origins.
Contents:
The lectures give an overview of the following topics:
" Introduction to landscape archaeology: outline of its research history, concepts and objectives, scale levels and spatially effective factors
" Overview of prehistoric settlement structures and forms of land use
" Cultural-space location factors and human-induced landscape changes with reference to selected examples, modeling and archaeological prediction.
In the exercise course, selected topics of landscape archaeology are explored with reference to well-documented interdisciplinary projects, focusing on the problems involved in evaluating bio- and geoscientific data in comparison with archaeological evidence, on source evaluation in settlement archaeology, and on problems of synchronization and interpretation.
