| Publisher Description: Some 40 per cent of Europe is farmed and 47 per cent forested. The future of the majority of Europes archaeological sites therefore depends on rural land uses that lie outside the spatial planning and development control systems of its various nation states. This volume, produced by the European Association of Archaeologists (EAA) and Europae Archaeologiae Consilium (EAC) Joint Working Group on Farming, Forestry and Rural Land Management, examines the challenges posed by agriculture, forestry and other rural land uses in terms of the long-term conservation of Europes archaeological sites and the management of its historic landscapes. |
