Paisajes, espacios y materialidades: Arqueologia Rural Altomedieval En La Peninsula Iberica

Paisajes, espacios y materialidades: arqueologia rural altomedieval en la peninsula iberica brings together a selection of the papers presented during the first edition of EMCAM - Early Medieval Countryside Archaeological Meetings (Castelo de Vide, May 2019), organized by the Institute of Medieval Studies (IEM - NOVA FCSH) and the Municipality of Castelo de Vide. The last three decades of archaeological fieldwork and research have revealed the importance of rural landscapes in analysing the processes of change that followed the collapse of the Roman imperial structure. In this volume, the contributions of key researchers in early medieval peasant archaeology, especially in the north-western quadrant of the Peninsula, are brought together, offering a multiscale image of the main lines of ongoing research. The different chapters collect theoretical reflections, methodological approaches, studies of ceramic collections and bioanthropological, anthracological and carpological data from different sites, offering unpublished contexts, critical reviews, and regional syntheses. To reconstruct the historical processes of the early medieval peasant communities requires, simultaneously, detailed knowledge about specific settlements and territories and space to debate, reflect, and draw comparisons. This book aims to do just that.
