Opis

This set of papers by European and North American archaeologists explore the interface between spatial technologies and areas of theoretical concern in spatial archaeology. Differing aspects of landscape, such as vision, perception and movement, are explored through a series of case studies that focus on how spatial technologies can influence archaeological interpretation and to what extent these technologies can be manipulated to take us beyond two-dimensional maps. Individual site-based analysis and applications of predictive modelling are also presented and assessed, together with the wider questions of spatial technologies within heritage management.
