The Agricultural Revolution in Prehistory: Why Did Foragers Become Farmers?
ISBN: 9780199281091 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 616 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Graeme Barker takes a global view, and integrates a massive array of information from archaeology and many other disciplines, including anthropology, botany, climatology, genetics, linguistics, and zoology. Against current orthodoxy, Barker develops a strong case for the development of agricultural systems in many areas as transformations in the life-ways of the indigenous forager societies, and argues...

A Mediterranean Valley: Landscape Archaeology and Annales History in the Biferno Valley

The Archaeology of Drylands : Living at the Margin
ISBN: 9780415230018 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many dryland regions contain archaeological remains which suggest that there must have been intensive phases of settlement in what now seem to be dry and degraded environments. Many people have speculated about what must have happened to turn past glories into present day barrenness, opinions generally dividing between climatic change and human activity as the primary culprit. Perhaps climate shifted to greater aridity, perhaps catastrophic but short-term droughts became too frequent? Or was it that people sowed the seeds of their own destruction, for example by removing trees or developing...
