2010年9月に開かれますLandscape Archaeologyに関する国際コロキウムの情報です.
詳細はこちらのPDFファイルをご確認下さい.

The international colloquium, to be held in Cairo, will be dedicated primarily to Egypt, however within the Mediterranean context. Egypt is characterised by the variety of its natural landscapes and exceptional archaeological potential. Within the framework of relations between man and his environment, the primary objective of the colloquium is to throw light on the evolution of the River Nile, a major component of the Egyptian landscape and its impact on the peripheral spaces (coasts, flood plain, desert wadis and their tributaries). However, are hoping to throw a wider net over the larger Mediterranean environment by welcoming additional case studies that will better emphasise Egyptian conditions.

The subjects developed during the colloquium concern all aspects of landscape archaeology. Sessions will be dedicated to the following topics:

- River landscapes
- Coastal landscapes
- The Nile and its delta
- Desert landscapes
- Urban landscapes
- Archaeology and climatic changes
- Archaeology and natural hazards
- Archaeology and geomatics
- Survey techniques
- Historical sources and landscapes
