The Archaeology of Prehistoric Coastlines offers a conspectus of
recent work on coastal archaeology examining the various ways in
which hunter-gatherers and farmers across the world exploited
marine resources such as fish, shellfish and waterfowl in
prehistory. Changes in sea levels and the balance of marine
ecosystems have altered coastal environments significantly over the
last ten thousand years and the contributors assess the impact of
these changes on the nature of human settlement and subsistence. An
overview of coastal archaeology as a developing discipline is
followed by ten case studies from a wide variety of places
including Scandinavia, Japan, Tasmania and New Zealand, Peru, South
Africa and the United States.
