Peatlands

Viac o knihe

Moorlands and peat landscapes have always captivated interest. They present both obstacles and dangers, yet also provide energy, raw materials, and essential resources for survival. These landscapes preserve organic material, serving as vital sources for natural and cultural history, and are often regarded as sacred. The 25 contributions explore various facets of peatlands: trackways in Ireland, the role of beavers, peat archaeology in the Netherlands, Mesolithic sites along the Upper Volga, Early Neolithic settlements at Lake Dümmer, geophysical surveys of peatlands, pre-Boreal elk hunting in Denmark, bog bodies, finds from South Scandinavia, wooden idols from wetlands, challenges in conserving artifacts in wet sites, organic materials from Windover Bog in Florida, vegetation succession in western Canada's boreal forests, ombrotrophic conditions in British and Irish bogs, peatland ecology and vegetation, subfossil oaks as climate archives, the history of bog conservation, and future strategies for protecting and sustainably using peatlands. These diverse perspectives highlight the complex relationship between humans and these unique ecosystems throughout history.
