Abstract
Geoarchaeology is the study, at all scales, of the direct interrelationships between past humans and their landscape/environment, including the social, economic, technological, and ideological aspects of human–environment interactions. It covers a wide range of topics that deal directly with material culture, cultural attitudes and perceptions of landscape, landscape modification, and issues of subsistence, settlement, daily activities, and sustainability. Geoarchaeology is both a field and laboratory‐based endeavor and practitioners employ methods and techniques from a wide range of fields, namely archaeology and the earth sciences.
