New Summer Study Meeting         Marsiliana d'Albergo    Tuscany Italy

"Detecting Cultural Landscape in Mediterranean Archaeology (DeCLaMA 2011)".

 Historical and archaeological features are recurrent components of

the Mediterranean Cultural Landscape, yet are little understood. It may be

a monumental centuries-old tree, or antique varieties of fruit trees and vines,

or artefacts leading back to ancient uses of the land, such as terraces,

charcoal-burning sites, or abandoned vineyards, olive-groves, or chestnut

orchards.

 This course offers theoretic and practical tuition in the rediscovery,

evaluation, and management of these parts of the Cultural Landscape,

with the aim of enriching the landscape surrounding archaeological sites.

A new understanding of the use of Cultural Landscape will proceed from the

innovative multidisciplinary approach of the course, through the perspectives

of botanists, archaeologists, geographers, managers and landscape architects.
