A Human Environment
Studies in honour of 20 years Analecta editorship by prof. dr. Corrie Bakels
2020 || Paperback || Victor Klinkenberg e.a. || Sidestone Press
This volume is themed around the interdependent relationship between humans and the environment, an important topic in the work of Corrie Bakels. How do environmental constraints and opportunities influence human behaviour and what is the human impact on the ecology and appearance of the landscape? And what can archaeological knowledge contribute to the current discussions about the use, arrangement and depletion of our (local) environment?

Landscapes of Survival
The Archaeology and Epigraphy of Jordan’s North-Eastern Desert and Beyond
Paperback || Peter Akkermans || Sidestone Press
The ‘Black Desert’ begins just south of Damascus and comprises some 40,000 km2 of dark and desolate basalt fields, which stretch from southern Syria across north-eastern Jordan and reach the sand sea of the Nefud in Saudi Arabia. The rough and highly arid terrain is often difficult to access and travel through. Despite these uninviting conditions, recent fieldwork has revealed the immense archaeological and epigraphic record of the Black Desert. This material testifies to the prominent su...

The Rationale, Construction, and Function of the Imperial Capitals of Assyria

Determining Prehistoric Skin Processing Technologies
The macro and microscopic characteristics of experimental samples
Paperback || Theresa Emmerich Kamper || Sidestone Press Dissertations

This research outlines the development of a systematic, non-destructive method for identifying the tanning technologies used to produce prehistoric skin artefacts. The approach combines extensive archaeological research and over 25 years of the author's personal tanning experience.
The method employs obs...

Hispaniola - Hell or Home?
Decolonizing Grand Narratives about Intercultural Interactions at Concepción de la Vega (1494-1564)
Paperback || Pauline Kulstad-González || Sidestone Press Dissertations
Grand Narratives of colonization, especially ones related to the Spanish and Portuguese Americas, began circulating soon after 1492. The danger of these Grand Narratives is that they are often mistaken as reality and eclipse all other possible narrations pertaining to a particular place and/or time. As more Caribbean territories become independent, the questioning of Grand Narratives has permeated many disciplines in the region, and archaeology is no exception.
This work attempts to examine th...

Cultures of Stone
An Interdisciplinary Approach to the Materiality of Stone
2020 || Hardcover || Gabriel Cooney e.a. || Sidestone Press
This volume establishes a rich cross-disciplinary dialogue about the significance of stone in society across time and space. The material properties of stone have ensured its continuing importance; however, it is its materiality which has mediated the relations between the individual, society and stone.
Bound up with the physical properties of stone are ideas on identity, value, and understanding. Stone can act as a medium through which these concepts are expressed and is tied to ideas such a...

Representing both a barrier and a corridor between the Eurasian and Asian continents, the Caucasus has constituted the setting for various socio-economic transformations throughout prehistory. The transition from the Middle to the Late Bronze Age in the Northern Caucasus is a period characterised by a shift from pastoral lifeways in the steppe to sedentary lifestyles in the high mountains, and the change from hierarchical to egalitarian societies. In this context, this book provides basic sci...

Hellenistic Architecture and Human Action
A Case of Reciprocal Influence
2020 || Hardcover || Annette Haug e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
This book examines the mutual influence of architecture and human action during a key period of history: the Hellenistic age. During this era, the profound transformations in the Mediterranean's archaeological and historical record are detectable, pointing to a conscious intertwining of the physical (landscape, architecture, bodies) and social (practice) components of built space.
Compiling the outcomes of a conference held in Kiel in 2018, the volume assembles contributions focusing on Hellen...
