This edited volume gathers contributions focused on understanding
the environment through the lens of Historical Archaeology.
Pressing issues such as climate change, global warming, the
Anthropocene and loss of biodiversity have pushed scholars from
different areas to examine issues related to the causes, processes,
and consequences of these phenomena. While traditional barriers
between natural and social sciences have been torn down, these
issues have gradually occupied a central place in the field of
anthropology. As archaeology involves the transdisciplinary study
of cultural and natural evidence related to the past, it is in a
privileged position to discuss the historical depth of some of the
processes related to environment that are deeply affecting the
world today. This volume brings together substantial and
comprehensive contributions to the understanding of the environment
in a historical perspective along three lines of inquiry:
Theoretical and methodological approaches to the environment in
Historical Archaeology Studies on environmental Historical
Archaeology Historical Archaeology and the Anthropocene Historical
Archaeology and Environment will be of interest to researchers in
both social and environmental sciences, working in different
disciplines and research areas, such as archaeology, history,
geography, anthropology, climate change studies, environmental
analysis and sustainable development studies.
