摘要

了解一个场地及其周边，或者一个地区及其场地的关键是了解其景观和环境。以加沙以东的赫西地区为例，自19世纪中叶西方学者开始对该地区进行调查以来，该地区一直被误解。对于河西地区来说，参与第一次世界大战的士兵是最后一个看到它的人，他们在很大程度上没有受到现代技术的影响，同时，他们也是第一个对它进行足够详细的记录以保存土地使用细节的人。这一独特时刻的记录对于学者重建过去的景观使用至关重要。这项研究确定，钻井和煤油和汽油动力水泵是将该地区从传统牧场转变为今天所见的多产农业区的关键技术。

The Changing Landscape of the Hesi Region And Its Implications for Archaeological Research

abstract:Key to understanding a site and its environs, or maybe a region and its sites, is understanding its landscape and environment. In the case of the Hesi region to the east of Gaza, the region has been misunderstood by Western scholars since they first began investigating it in the midnineteenth century. For the Hesi region, the soldiers involved in the Great War were the last to see it largely untouched by modern technology and, at the same time, the first to record it in sufficient detail to preserve details of land usage. Records from this unique moment in time were crucial for the scholarly reconstruction of past landscape usage. This study identifies drilled wells and both kerosene- and gasoline-powered water pumps as the key technological introductions that transformed the region from being a traditional pasturage to the productive agrarian region seen today.

期刊介绍： Journal of Eastern Mediterranean Archaeology and Heritage Studies (JEMAHS) is a peer-reviewed journal devoted to traditional, anthropological, social, and applied archaeologies of the Eastern Mediterranean, encompassing both prehistoric and historic periods. The journal’s geographic range spans three continents and brings together, as no academic periodical has done before, the archaeologies of Greece and the Aegean, Anatolia, the Levant, Cyprus, Egypt and North Africa. As the publication will not be identified with any particular archaeological discipline, the editors invite articles from all varieties of professionals who work on the past cultures of the modern countries bordering the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. Similarly, a broad range of topics are covered, including, but by no means limited to: Excavation and survey field results; Landscape archaeology and GIS; Underwater archaeology; Archaeological sciences and archaeometry; Material culture studies; Ethnoarchaeology; Social archaeology; Conservation and heritage studies; Cultural heritage management; Sustainable tourism development; and New technologies/virtual reality.
