The Excellence Cluster Topoi invites archaeologists, geographers and researchers from neighbouring disciplines dealing with landscape archaeology to join in a landscape archaeology workshop in Berlin, November 19th-21th.
Deadline for proposals: July 15th!
Landscape archaeology crosses the boundaries between sciences and humanities and the beginning of a beneficial cooperation has been leading to mutual learning and adaption. Landscape archaelology is challenging in several ways:
- How to carry out interdisciplinary instead of multidisciplinary research?
- The controversial term 'landscape': what are the topics and questions landscape archaeologists deal with?
-
The contrast between our understanding of landscape (equipped with planes, maps and satellites) and the understandig of prehistoric people.
During a 2.5 day workshop marked by keynote lectures, paper sessions, and open discussion rounds we would like to discuss these questions.
