Landscape Archaeology in the Near East: Approaches, Methods and Case Studies contains original research presented at the third international symposium of SNELA – the Society for Near Eastern Landscape Archaeology. SNELA was established in 2016 with the first symposium (held in Jerusalem) with the express aim of providing a meeting ground for all landscape archaeologists working on the Near East, especially local researchers.
The theme of the third meeting was ‘Archaeology and Anthropology of Resource Use in the Near East’. The papers are wide ranging, from the Palaeolithic to the classical Near East, with some focusing on settlement and movement for trade, but with the overarching threads of conservation of important archaeological landscapes and developing technology for the study of landscapes. The society is quite young and still finding its voice; this volume is a snapshot of a developing field.
Bülent Arıkan is a landscape archaeologist who has worked extensively in the Near East. His research focuses on modeling paleoclimates and simulating behavioral changes under past environmental perturbations as well as exploring how ancient cultures impacted their landscapes. His publications focus on past climatic changes and socio-ecological dynamics from the Neolithic to the Iron Age. Linda Olsvig-Whittaker, a founding member of SNELA, was an evolutionary ecologist with a 40 year career in ecology and nature conservation in Israel. On retirement in 2014, she began a career in landscape archaeology. She has published on ecological change at the end of the Bronze Age, and on archaeobotany and Roman settlement patterns in Jordan. She is currently affiliated with École biblique et archéologique française de Jérusalem, and working on settlement patterns in the Lower Galilee.
