Contemporary Philosophy for Maritime Archaeology
Flat Ontologies, Oceanic Thought, and the Anthropocene
2023 || Hardcover || Sara Rich e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
While terrestrial archaeology has engaged with contemporary philosophy, maritime archaeology has remained in comparative disciplinary – or subdisciplinary – isolation. However, the issues that humans face in the Anthropocene – from global warming to global pandemics – call for transdisciplinary cooperation, and for thinking together beyond the confines of the human-centered philosophical tradition. Growing areas such as the “blue humanities” and “oceanic thinking” draw directl...

Maidanets'ke
Development and decline of a Trypillia mega-site in Central Ukraine
Hardcover || René Ohlrau || Sidestone Press Academics
At the end of the 5th millennium BCE, some of the vastest settlements of the time emerged on the forest steppe north of the Black Sea. The largest of these sites were found between the Southern Bug and Dnieper river. There they occur only tens of kilometres apart and are assumed to be partly coeval. The Trypillia 'mega-sites' reached sizes of up to 320 hectares with up to 3000 buildings in one place. During their peak times as many as 11.000 people could have lived in one of those settlements.
But how did people come together in these Trypillia 'mega-sites' with several thousand dwellings? How long were such sites inhabited, and how many people lived there? Were these settlements the first towns, preceding the Mesopotamian development? To address these questions, this book presents the results of the investigations at the Maidanets'ke 'mega-site'...

Insights into Social Inequality
A Quantitative Study of Neolithic to Early Medieval Societies in Southwest Germany
Paperback || Ralph Grossmann || Sidestone Press Academics
Social inequality is a subject of contemporary concerns. Life capabilities and the access to resources vary significantly in rich and poor countries, between elites and others. Furthermore, inequalities based on bio-anthropological and non-bio-anthropological causes are almost universal. Accordingly, inequality was also inherent in past societies and archaeologists have continually examined and interpreted social inequalities in sources such as burial grounds.
This book continues such analyse...

Bones at a crossroads
Integrating Worked Bone Research with Archaeometry and Social Zooarchaeology
2021 || Hardcover || Markus Wild e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
Bone tool studies are at a crossroads. A current path is to go beyond the concatenation of methods or concepts borrowed from other disciplines and aim instead at a truly integrated approach that is more in line with the objectives of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research.
The papers in this volume follow this direction by adopting various forms of dialogue and integration between old and new methods and approaches, including technological analysis, usewear analysis, typology, zooa...

Settling Waterscapes in Europe
The Archaeology of Neolithic & Bronze Age Pile-Dwellings
2022 || Hardcover || Albert Hafner e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
Pile dwellings have been explored over a vast region for a number of decades now. This has led to the development of different ways, methods, and even schools of under-water and peat-bog excavation practices and data analysis techniques under the influence of different research traditions in individual countries. On the one hand, these and other factors can limit our understanding of the past, whilst on the other hand they can also open up further avenues of interpretation.
By collecting the ...

Habitus? The Social Dimension of Technology and Transformation
2019 || Paperback || Slawomir Kadrow e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
The problem of the social dimension of technology and transformation seen in the perspective of the habitus has been repeatedly undertaken in various works. However, the complexity of these phenomena causes subsequent attempts to be presented and explained again in new contexts, bringing interesting observations.
The edited volume aims to contribute to our better understanding of a system of embodied dispositions hidden under the term 'habitus'. This will be achieved by presenting the latest ...

Gender Transformations in Prehistoric and Archaic Societies
2019 || Hardcover || Julia Koch e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
In which chronological, spatial, and social contexts is gender a relevant social category that is noticeable in the archaeological material? How can transformations in social gender relations and identity be recognized archaeologically? Is the identity of prehistoric people defined by gender? If so, what is the accompanying cultural context? What about gender equality among the scientists working in archaeology? In what degree are research teams, as well as their scientific approaches, biased...
Caribbean Figure Pendants: Style and Subject Matter
Anthropomorphic figure pendants of the late Ceramic Age in the Greater Antilles
Paperback || Vernon James Knight || Sidestone Press Academics
This work synthesizes art-historical and anthropological methods in the analysis of a large corpus of indigenous figure pendants, commonly called “amulets,” from the Greater Antilles and Bahamas. Figure pendants, ubiquitous in Caribbean collections, are small carvings of spirit beings perforated for suspension against the body. The data are drawn from new photographs, measurements, and observations of 535 specimens compiled by the author during 2011-2018 in research visits to 34 museums a...

Hellenistic Architecture and Human Action
A Case of Reciprocal Influence
2020 || Paperback || 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...
