Geoarchaeology is currently one of the key approaches shaping our knowledge of human activity in the past. The concept of site formation, taking into account the impact of anthropogenic phenomena and geological processes on the extent of our consideration of human adaptation strategies and culture, is proving particularly important. We will focus on the discussion of methods applied in the context of specific archaeological sites representing fluvial, colluvial and aeolian sedimentary environments. We will work with examples of open and cave sites with remains dating mainly to the Pleistocene and early Holocene. During the course, we will learn about the different ways of analysing archaeological sites, such as sedimentological studies, spatial analyses of sites, or micromorphological and geochemical analyses of sediments. We will analyse examples of the occurrence of archaeological relics in colluvial and fluvial environments, known from sites of the early and late Middle Palaeolithic phase. In discussing the issue of sites in aeolian environments, we will study Upper Palaeolithic sites, sometimes accumulating large collections of megafaunal remains. We will also focus our attention on cave sites, where we will trace various examples of contemporary investigations of remains dating to the Middle and Upper Pleistocene (Lower, Middle and Upper Palaeolithic). We will also discuss the problem of the formation of pseudo-sites and geofacts in different environments. We will support our classes with contemporary reports of research on specific Central European sites and literature belonging to the canon of geoarchaeology.Termine
