- Title
Working in landscape archaeology: the social and territorial significance of the agricultural revolution in al-Andalus.
- Authors
MARTIN CIVANTOS, JOSÉ MARIA
- Abstract
The agrarian transformations which took place in the Iberian Peninsula between the eighth and the tenth century are essential for an understanding of how al-Andalus came into being. These developments provided the basis of a social formation which developed into a tributary mode of production. This study is part of a research project that draws inspiration from the tenets of landscape archaeology. Studying historic landscapes as part of the material culture of past societies provides valuable information about cultures and the ways they express themselves in space.
