Geoarchaeology August 2007


Geoarchaeology

The journal Geoarchaeology has a number of fascinating papers focusing on the Mediterranean and Near East (part 2) in its August 2007 issue (Volume 22, Issue 6). Have a look at the above page for more information, with titles and abstracts, including Holocene climatic change and human settlement between the central Sahara and the Nile Valley: Archaeological and geomorphological results by Olaf Bubenzer and Heiko Riemer.

Part 1 of the Mediterranean and Near Eastern special issue (Volume 21, Issue 7, October 2006) also had an article on Egypt, focusing on the Western Desert: A digital elevation model as a base for the reconstruction of Holocene land-use potential in arid regions by Andreas Bolten, Olaf Bubenzer and Frank Darius

The June 2007 issue also had an interesting paper: An examination of groundwater within the Hawara Pyramid, Egypt by K. Keatings, G.J. Tassie, R.J. Flower, F.A. Hassan, M.A.R. Hamdan, M. Hughes, and C. Arrowsmith. I had to give that one a plug - Geoffrey Tassie is a friend.
