Post-processual Landscape Archaeology: a Critique

TL;DR: This paper argued that post-processual landscape archaeology has produced highly questionable "results" and that it would not be advisable to abandon the heuristic, argument-grounded strengths of conventional landscape archaeological research.
MonographDOI

An Environmental History of Medieval Europe

TL;DR: In this paper, Hoffmann examines medieval relationships with the natural world from the perspective of social ecology, viewing human society as a hybrid of the cultural and the natural, revealing the role of natural forces in events previously seen as purely human.

GIS and the application of a model of pollen deposition and dispersal : a new approach to testing landscape hypotheses using the POLLANDCAL models

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the first attempt to develop simulations based on real landscapes, by placing distinct vegetation communities using reclassified digital elevation models (combined slope and altitude data), and the results for 49 simulated pollen deposition sites, across an altitudinal range for a series of landscape scenarios, is compared with existing empirical data.
