These seven papers from a session held at the XIVth UISSP congress
held in Liege in 2001, focus on the little-studied subject of water
management on the Chalcolithic and early Bronze Age taking case
studies from across Europe and the Near East. The contributors
define water as an appropriate category for study within
prehistoric societies drawing on a range of archaeological,
historical, geographical, cultural and ethnographic sources. The
case studies cover a broad range of subjects including engineering
and water management schemes, the construction of dams and dykes,
methods of drawing water, cultural interaction and communication
facilitated by water, anthropological models and the impact of the
intensified exploitation of water.
