Abstract
Landscape archaeology, as a type of research based on a systemic surface survey and that results in quantifiable datasets of high quality, has started to be practiced in southeastern Arabia only in recent years. In this paper, I will briefly review the short history of landscape archaeology in the area and its relevance. I will then present the approach and methods used in the Wadi al Jizzi Archaeological Project and discuss some of the results obtained to discuss both the potential and problems of the data that the project generated. In particular, I will focus on ephemeral sites and assemblages, data quality and data representativity.
景观考古学作为一种基于系统地表调查的研究类型,其结果是高质量的可量化数据集,近年来才开始在阿拉伯东南部开展。在本文中,我将简要回顾该地区景观考古学的短暂历史及其相关性。然后,我将介绍在Wadi al Jizzi考古项目中使用的方法和方法,并讨论所获得的一些结果,以讨论该项目产生的数据的潜力和问题。特别是,我将重点关注短暂的站点和集合,数据质量和数据代表性。
期刊介绍:
In recent years the Arabian peninsula has emerged as one of the major new frontiers of archaeological research in the Old World. Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy is a forum for the publication of studies in the archaeology, epigraphy, numismatics, and early history of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Both original articles and short communications in English, French, and German are published, ranging in time from prehistory to the Islamic era.
