In verschiedensten Disziplinen der Geistes-, Sozial- und Lebenswissenschaften werden verstärkt gesellschaftliche Grundannahmen über nichtmenschliche Arten hinterfragt.

After the deluge
2017 || Hardcover || Wilko van Zijverden || Sidestone Press Dissertations
After World War II huge land consolidation projects measuring thousands of hectares were carried out in West-Frisia. Large scale excavations of Bronze Age settlement sites were carried out resulting in a convincing model for the Bronze Age habitation of West-Frisia. This model envisaged settlement sites situated on creek ridges in an open almost treeless landscape. After a sudden change in climate c. 800 cal BC parts of the landscape were inundated, peat bogs developed and West-Frisia was aba...

From Golden Rock to Historic Gem
a Historical Archaeological Analysis of the Maritime Cultural Landscape of St. Eustatius, Dutch Caribbean
2019 || Hardcover || Ruud Stelten || Sidestone Press Dissertations
St. Eustatius, a small island in the northeastern Lesser Antilles, was one of the busiest ports in the eighteenth-century Atlantic World. Contested between the Dutch, French, and English, the island attracted thousands of ships a year and became one of the most cosmopolitan places in the New World. Moreover, the island played an important role in the American War of Independence (1775-1783), during which large quantities of arms, ammunition, and gunpowder were shipped to the fledgling United ...

Burgäschisee 5000-3000 v. Chr.
Siedlungsdynamik und Mobilität, Landnutzung und Subsistenz
2022 || Hardcover || Albert Hafner e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
Seeufersiedlungen mit Feuchtbodenerhaltung sind für die Erforschung des Neolithikums des Alpenvorlandes von herausragender Bedeutung. Die ausserordentlich gute Erhaltung der Siedlungsschichten lässt weitgehende Einblicke in die Lebensweise der prähistorischen Menschen zu. Das Hinterland der grossen Seen ist im Gegensatz dazu weniger gut untersucht. Eine Schlüsselrolle bei dessen Erforschung nehmen die zahlreichen Kleinseen des Schweizerischen Mittellandes ein. Auch an deren Ufern finden s...

Isotopes in Vitreous Materials
2011 || Hardcover || Patrick Degryse e.a. || Leuven University Press
For all archaeological artefactual evidence, the study of the provenance, production technology and trade of raw materials must be based on archaeometry. Whereas the study of the provenance and trade of stone and ceramics is already well advanced, this is not necessarily the case for ancient glass. The nature of the raw materials used and the geographical location of their transformation into artefacts often remain unclear. Currently, these questions are addressed by the use of radiogenic iso...

Environmental humanities: a rethinking of landscape archaeology?
Interdisciplinary academic research related to different perspectives of landscapes
2021 || Hardcover || S.J. Kluiving e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
There has been an increasing archaeological interest in human-animal-nature relations, where archaeology has shifted from a focus on deciphering meaning, or understanding symbols and the social construction of the landscape to an acknowledgement of how things, places and the environment contribute with their own agencies to the shaping of relations.
This means that the environment cannot be regarded as a blank space that landscape meaning is projected onto. Parallel to this, the field of env...

The Life and Journey of Neolithic Copper Objects
Transformations of the Neuenkirchen Hoard, North-East Germany (3800 BCE)
2022 || Hardcover || Henry Skorna || Sidestone Press Academics
This work is an intensive study of the Neolithic deposition of copper objects from Neuenkirchen in North-East Germany. This unique ensemble represents one of the very rare hoard finds from the early Early Neolithic, and is the first of its kind for nearly 100 years, matched only by the famous younger hoard find from Bygholm (Denmark).
The beginning of neolithization at the end of the fifth millennium is not only characterised by a change in the subsistence strategy, but also by the developmen...
