Reviews
''This volume provides exciting new insights into the archaeological study of contested landscapes, bringing together contributions from around the world. Its landscape archaeology approach puts the focus on conflicts and contestations, explicitly looking at landscapes as arenas for analysing political struggles. Thus, it represents a significant contribution to the growing body of literature that engages with the more political dimensions of the past – and present''.
