Attention this is a Submergency: Incorporating Global Submerged Records
Part of: Society for Historical Archaeology 2023
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Attention this is a Submergency: Incorporating Global Submerged Records," at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.
Research into the social and physical changes of submerged environments since the last glacial maximum have benefited from advances in methodological applications and theoretical perspectives. Though submerged landscapes are an integral part of underwater cultural heritage, they are often the least studied, the hardest to find, and the most difficult to document. These ancient environments, from offshore continental shelves to inland rivers and lakes, hold the potential to greatly contribute to our understanding of past human experiences, and we as archaeologists have the opportunity to revisit the cultural material of the people who inhabited these spaces. Data from inundated landscapes is essential for providing a holistic picture of the past, and individual presenters within this session will provide regional records and highlight unique projects with the ultimate goal of integrating and managing archaeological records between land and sea.
