Geophysical insights into soil preservation and Neolithic settlement in Kuyavia's glacial till landscapes (Poland)
Buried soil topography determines longhouse preservation, Longhouse preservation challenges detection via MAG, (Di)electric contrasts facilitate GPR and RES survey results
Burnt ant nests and their parallels with Mesolithic charcoal-rich pits
On the origin of Mesolithic charcoal-rich pits
Undisturbed iron industry sites in the Sonian Forest, Belgium
The Conservation and Degradation of Archaeological Soil Features in Flanders and Brussels
Ten years ago, an extensive literature study on the conservation and degradation of soil features in Flanders was conducted. The outcome was a report discussing the state of preservation. The present contribution intends to synthesize the chief outcomes of that research and to present a case study where the theoretical knowledge and recommendations then put forward have been applied

Traces de roulage ou de labour ? Le diagnostic micromorphologique
L’observation de nombreuses traces de labour et traces de roulage sur le terrain par les auteurs lors du suivi pédo-sédimentaire de différentes interventions archéologiques en France septentrionale et en Belgique, a permis d’isoler trois caractéristiques majeures permettant de les différencier : 1) la microstructure qui reflète d’un côté l’aération du sol par l’outil aratoire et de l’autre le tassement par des engins lourds, 2) les indices d’humi…
Hunter-gatherer responses to the changing environment of the Moervaart palaeolake (Nw Belgium) during the Late Glacial and Early Holocene
Land Use History and Site Formation Processes at the Punic Site of Pauli Stincus in West Central Sardinia
The site of Pauli Stincus is located near the town of Terralba, on the inland shores of the Gulf of Oristano in west central Sardinia, Italy, and was occupied between the mid‐4th and the late 2nd century B.C. The site and its surroundings were the object of a joint archaeopedological and geomorphological study, which complemented the data from archaeological excavations. This study allowed us to evaluate the suitability of the different landscape…
Medieval D ark E arth in an Active Alluvial Setting from the U ffizi G allery Complex in F lorence, I taly
Archaeological excavations at the B iblioteca M agliabechiana, which is part of the U ffizi gallery complex in F lorence ( T uscany, central I taly), exposed D ark E arth deposits between alluvial sediments of the nearby A rno R iver. The term D ark E arth refers to thick, dark colored, and seemingly homogeneous deposits occurring in urban settings throughout E urope, broadly dated to the post‐ R oman period. The stratigraphic sequence of the B i…
Soilscape and land‐use evolution related to drift sand movements since the bronze age in Eastern Jutland, Denmark
Quarry faces several kilometers long in the Glesborg area in Denmark show that Bronze Age farmers used a sustainable land‐use system. Despite nutrient‐poor soils, the Glesborg area was under a rotation system in which cropland alternated with grassland. Soil fertility was improved by the addition of household waste and probably also by locally obtained inorganic fertilizer. The soil surface was very stable, and local drift sand movement was limit…
The impact of moderate to marginal land suitability on prehistoric agricultural production and models of adaptive strategies for Easter Island (Rapa Nui, Chile)
Indigenous knowledge about soils and a sustainable crop production, a case study from the Guinea Woodland Savannah (Northern Region, Ghana)
Fanners from the village of Dalun in northern Ghana were interviewed about their knowledge of soils and traditional crop management in the area. This indigenous knowledge is based on inherited experience gained over many generations and is passed on verbally from generation to generation. This local knowledge was then compiled into a Farmers' Soil Classification (FSC) system, revealing two hierarchical levels. Subsequently, the FSC was compared t…

Micromorphological study of construction materials and living floors in the medieval motte of Werken (West Flanders, Belgium)
The “Hoge Andjoen,” an early medieval motte (860–960 A.D.) is an artificial hill made up of at least eight man-made “ground raising/leveling” layers. Each layer is associated with a stabilization level and a well-preserved occupation surface with evidence such as living floors, traces of cultivation, and goat/sheep trampling. The presence of this hill generated a local rise in the original groundwater table present in the natural, buried soil of …

Comparison of International, National and Farmers' Classification Systems, Applied to Soils of the Western Dagomba District (Northern Ghana)
Geografisk Tidsskrift, Danish Journal of Geography 97: 47–57, 1997. Selected soils developed on the Voltaian Shale formation have been studied. Classification of a Vertic and a Lateritic soil is compared in four systems: 1) Soil Taxonomy (Soil Survey Staff 1996), 2) FAO- UNESCO (1990), 3) the Ghanaian soil classification system (Brammer 1962), and 4) the local Farmer's classification system (Mikkelsen 1994). The comparison deals with the quantity…
