Abstract The Late Bronze Age (1700–900 BC) represents an extremely dynamic period for Mediterranean Europe. Here, we provide a comparative survey of the archaeological record over half millennium within entire northern littoral Mediterranean, from Greece to Iberia, incorporating archaeological, archaeometric, and bioarchaeological evidence. picture that emerges, while certainly fragmented not displaying unique trajectory, reveals number broad trends in aspects as different social...
Island archeology is increasingly using network science to make sense of patterns connectivity in the past. This article advocates favor a greater dialogue between these two fields, not just at level methodology but also theory. Relational thinking, which lies heart science, can shed light on key issues island archeology, such as isolation/connectivity and centrality/marginality, their effects communities. identities particular are often considered fairly statically by archeologists, terms...
Abstract The small islands of the Mediterranean are generally considered to be marginal spaces, located on periphery mainstream processes occurring mainland. While we might acknowledge such marginality in terms limited productivity, can also become critical nodes networks interaction, often owing their location along maritime routes and/or desirable resources. This is evident during Bronze Age, when extensive travel across first documented, and historical times, were tied into market...
This study provides a critical and interdisciplinary review of the archaeological record Aeolian Islands (Italy), from their earliest settlement in mid-sixth millennium BC (Middle Neolithic) to establishment trans-Mediterranean networks at end second (Final Bronze Age). We combine archaeological, archaeometric, bioarchaeological environmental data explore interplay between different prehistoric practices spatial settings, revisiting old evidence presenting new data. The resulting picture...

Over the last decade there has been a growing awareness of current and likely future impacts rising sea levels on low-lying islands coastlines. For island nations such as Kiribati, is very real threat submergence habitable areas with substantial proportion population requiring relocation to elsewhere, either collectively – allowing them reconstitute single diasporic community or else in fragmented dispersed form. Similarly, inhabitants chars (temporary river islands) Bengal may have live...
