The missing woodland resources
Woodlands are a key source of raw materials for many purposes since early Prehistory. Wood, bark, resin, leaves, fibres, fungi, moss, or tubers have been gathered to fulfill almost every human need. That led societies to develop specific technologies to acquire, manage, transform, elaborate, use, and consume these resources. The materials provided by woodlands covered a wide range of necessities such as food, shelter, clothing, or tool production, but they also provided resources employed for waterproofing, dying, medicine, and adhesives, among many others. All these technological processes and uses are commonly difficult to identify through the archaeological record. Some materials are excl...

Arqueología
El Comité Organizador del 56º Congreso Internacional de Americanistas (ICA) publica las actas del encuentro celebrado en la Universidad de Salamanca el 15 al 20 de julio de 2018. Bajo el lema «Universalidad y particularismo en las Américas», reflexionó sobre la dialéctica entre la universalidad y los particularismos en la producción de conocimiento, un diálogo en el que la necesidad de conocer los particularismos de los fenómenos sociales, políticos, artísticos y culturales obliga a formular nuevas hipótesis que enriquecen y replantean las grandes teorías generales de las ciencias y las humanidades. El carácter interdisciplinario e inclusivo que ha caracterizado al ICA desde s...

Arqueología e interdisciplinariedad
El papel de la interdisciplinariedad en el desarrollo de la arqueología ha pasado prácticamente desapercibido en la historiografía reciente. Los relatos autobiográficos reunidos en esta obra proporcionan una visión en primera persona de los recorridos personales de varias generaciones de investigadores que se han especializado en subdisciplinas tan diferentes como la antracología, la arqueopalinología, la malacología, la avifauna, la arqueobiología humana, la geoarqueología, la traceología y la arqueometalurgia, entre otras. Este es, por tanto, un libro único, ya que nos acerca al caleidoscopio humano de la mano de algunos de sus protagonistas trazando el desarrollo de sus disciplinas, que han marcado profundamente el devenir de la arqueología española en este último medio siglo.00.
