Review Quotes

"These are the result of research by a highly impressive European network which addressed methodological issues in Mediterranean landscape archaeology...
The scale of work and detail of publication, as well as the broad vision by such a group of serious scholars, make this an enviable project for British archaeologists...
A useful quarry for techniques and comparative data."

Alison Taylor
The Archaeologist 41 (Summer 2001)

"To me the most important contribution of the publication is the rich overview of diverse methodologies that is made available in one integrated source."

Richard E. Blanton
Antiquity 75 (2001)
