Research into the anthropogenic and taphonomic processes that
affect the formation of maritime archaeological resources has grown
significantly over the last decade in both theory and the analysis
of specific sites and associated material culture. The addition of
interdisciplinary inquiry, investigative techniques, and analytical
modeling, from fields such as engineering, oceanography, and marine
biology have increased our ability to trace the unique pathways
through which archaeological sites progress from initial deposition
to the present, yet can also link individual sites into an
integrated socio-environmental maritime landscape. This edited
volume presents a global perspective of current research in
maritime archaeological landscape formation processes. In addition
to "classically" considered submerged material culture and
geography, or those that can be accessed by traditional underwater
methodology, case studies include less-often considered sites and
landscapes. These landscapes, for example, require archaeologists
to use geophysical marine survey equipment to characterize
extensive areas of the seafloor or go above the surface to access
maritime archaeological resources that have received less scholarly
attention.
