This volume of the ASLU series examines perspectives on maritime and underwater cultural heritage (MUCH) in southern Africa and proposes new management approaches to advance protection and public engagement. By redefining the maritime historical narratives in countries that have predominantly interpreted their maritime past through colonial shipwrecks, it is possible to create an environment in which stakeholders become active participants in heritage management. The application of a broad ma...

The potters’ perspectives
A vibrant chronological narrative of ceramic manufacturing practices in the valley of Juigalpa, Chontales, Nicaragua (cal 300 CE-present)
2020 || Paperback || Natalia R. Donner || Leiden University Press
The work of Fernand Braudel (1949) should have revolutionized the way archaeology conceptualizes temporal scales and builds chronological narratives. Even though Braudel’s general views did impact archaeological theory deeply, his three different time-scales, together with insights into duration as the inner dialectic between different temporalities, remain neglected in archaeological practice.
Nowadays, ceramic chronology building in archaeology still relies on two main variables: time-spa...

Mapping Medieval Merv
An Exploration into the Application of Cartographic Analysis and Urban Morphological Theory to an Urban Archaeological Site
2025 || Hardcover || Loren Cowin || Sidestone Press Dissertations
Situated within the vast Karakum desert of western Central Asia, the Merv oasis exhibits a trove of archaeological sites, owing to its rich ancient and medieval history. Likely due to its strategic location along the historic Silk Roads, the oasis boasts no less than three distinct urban sites, each corresponding to a different period.

Archaeological studies Leiden University (ASLU) Egypt beyond representation
materials and materiality of Aegyptiaca Romana
|| Sander Müskens || Leiden University Press
The 35th volume of the ASLU series develops and applies a new approach to study Aegyptiaca Romana from a bottom-up, Roman perspective. Current approaches to these objects are often still plagued by top-down projections of modern definitions and understandings of Egypt and Egyptian material culture onto the Roman world. "Egypt beyond representation" instead argues that these artefacts should be studied in their own right, without reducing them from the onset to fixed (Egyptian) meanings. Start...

Een onderzoek naar de overgang van jagen en verzamelen naar landbouw, het zogenoemde neolithisatieproces.

Dit proefschrift heeft tot doel een beter begrip van het neolithisatieproces in de Nederlandse 'wetlands' te bieden. De auteur doet dit door middel van d...
