Geomatics for Landscape Archaeology: Dreams of Eternal Youth

Summary

This is an abstract from the "Developments and Challenges in Landscape Archaeology" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Geographic information technologies already have a long history of use in archaeology. In fact, archaeology has perhaps been the field of humanities where these technologies have reached the most widespread development, in many cases becoming part of the “standard package” of work for any archaeologist. To what extent is this true, or are they still more a part of a specialized field of work? Is there still room for innovation or have we reached a more static and conformist full maturity? What has been their impact after all these years in the ways we approach landscapes? What scenarios can we conjecture for the coming years?
