In this book, Lee A. Newsom offers an overview of wood in
archaeology --how and where it is preserved and analyzed, its
relevance to paleoecological and paleoenvironmental questions, as
well as its role as an important source of information in modern
archaeological science and related historical disciplines. Her book
addresses a range of questions about wood reliance practices,
sustainability, and the overall relevance of forest ecosystems to
past cultures and cultural evolution. Newsom provides a
step-by-step treatment of archaeological analysis with clear
explanations and examples from various corners of the world. She
also shows how the study of archaeological wood is relevant to
modern restoration ecology and conservation biology that tracks
long-term ancient ecosystems, including questions of global change.
Demonstrating the vital role of wood and timber resources to past
human societies, her book will interest scholars and students of
archaeology, historical ecology, paleoecology, and wood science.
