2023 || Paperback || Henny Piezonka e.a. || Sidestone Press

Humans and animals followed them. The routes directed the circulation of raw materials and goods. They determined the paths on which humans fled from misery and danger, and they constituted the physical and imagined veins of networks between communities. All these cultural and biological c...

(on)aangenaam verleden
waarom het verleden ertoe doet en archeologie geschiedenis moet schrijven
2023 || Paperback || David Fontijn || Sidestone Press
Met het huidige archeologisch bestel, de impact van de ‘third science’- revolutie en de toenemende aandacht voor erfgoed lijkt de Nederlandse archeologie sterker in de samenleving verankerd dan ooit.

Concepts of Resilience for the Study of Early Iranian Societies
2023 || Paperback || Reinhard Bernbeck e.a. || Sidestone Press
The collection of essays in this book focuses on the highlands of Iran in pre-modern times, reaching from the Paleolithic to the medieval period.

We start from the premise that general circumstances in the fractured topographic structure of the Iranian highlands led to unique relations between ecological, social, economic and poli...
