Author(s): Katherine Spielmann; Hoski Schaafma; Sharon Hall; Melissa Kruse-Peeples; John Briggs

Year: 2011

Summary

The Legacies on the Landscape Project is an ongoing collaboration between ecology and archaeology faculty, graduate, and undergraduate students at Arizona State University. The project was born out of the recognition that strongly integrated interdisciplinary research was essential for understanding human-ecosystem interactions. Our particular case study is focused on understanding the long-term legacy of prehistoric human land use on the ecology of semi-desert grasslands in the Southwestern United States.
