Regional Pathways to Complexity : Settlement and Land-Use Dynamics in Early Italy from the Bronze Age to the Republican Period

Abstract

Beside the authors themselves, several other people have been involved in the production of this book.Bert Brouwenstijn, draughtsman at ACVU, was responsible for most of the work on the maps and figures, and for the entire layout; Jaap Fokkema and Martijn van Leusen assisted in the production of the maps.The correction of the text was professionally handled by Gerre van der Kleij at GrondTaal Vertaalbureau.Finally, much of the research on which this book was based took place in Italy.Thanks are due first of all to the student participants, who are too numerous to be mentioned here by name, and in particular to the team leaders, both those of our field surveys of the period 1997-2000, and those of the later surveys and excavations that we continue to direct in the RPC regions.For many, this was their first encounter with archaeological fieldwork in Italy, and we hope they have enjoyed it as much as we have.Of course, no foreign archaeological mission in Italy could be successful without the help and participation of local authorities and Italian colleagues active in the study and management of the regional archaeological heritage.We acknowledge their contributions here by region:The GIA research programme directed by Kleibrink in the Sibaritide, entitled 'Dominant versus non-dominant, Greeks and Oenotrians on the Timpone della Motta', started in 1993 while the regional Raganello Archaeological Project, directed by Attema and Van Leusen, started in 2002.3 This latter project studies the catchment area of the Timpone della Motta and the up-and highlands of the upper and middle Raganello watershed area.Both programmes were financed by the Nether lands Orga nisati on for Scientific Research and the Groningen Institute of Archaeology, and are now supported by and developed together with the Italian Direzione Generale per i Beni Archeologici and the Soprintendenza per i beni archeologici della Calabria.We sincerely thank our Italian colleagues and especially the then soprintendente dott.
