Europe's Cultural Landscape

The Second Europae Archeologiae Consilium Symposium held in Strasbourg in 2001 brought together a collection of international archaeologists researching and studying the cultural landscape across Europe. This collection of 24 papers from the conference highlights the need for increased awareness and understanding of the management and protection of the landscape and the contributors also speak in response to new European policies on landscape management and agriculture. Encouraging dialogue between European colleagues, between institutions and professional agencies, this book addresses archaeological and historical considerations and places them above the usual aesthetic and ecological issues. Contributors include: Gabriel Cooney, Richard Hingley, John Coles, David Gwyn, Ingrid Stoumann, Clarie Foley, Lesley Macinnes, Ellen Lee. Papers in English; abstracts in English, French and German.
