Their societies display different attitudes toward the land and the sea, which in turn cast light on group identities. This volume advances theoretical discussions of island archaeology by offering a comparative study of the archaeology of colonisation, abandonment, and resettlement of the Mediterranean islands in prehistory. This comparative and thematic study encourages anthropological reflections on the archaeology of the islands, ultimately focusing on people rather than geographical units, and specifically on the relations between islanders, mainlanders, and the creation of islander identities. This volume has significance for scholars interested in Mediterranean archaeology, as well as those interested more broadly in colonisation and abandonment"--Provided by publisher.UNIV COL LONDON INST ARCH PUBIsland archaeologyMediterranean RegionPrehistoric peoplesMediterranean RegionAntiquities, PrehistoricMediterranean RegionExcavations (Archaeology)Mediterranean RegionMediterranean RegionColonizationIsland archaeologyPrehistoric peoplesAntiquities, PrehistoricExcavations (Archaeology)937SOC003000bisacshDawson Helen(Helen Sarah),1551233MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789120003321Mediterranean voyages3810646UNINA
