  • More about Productive and Social Practices in Prehistoric and Protohistoric Earthen Building
Productive and Social Practices in Prehistoric and Protohistoric Earthen Building presents new perspectives on one of the most widespread yet historically undervalued forms of construction. Bringing together contributions from leading researchers, the volume explores the production, use and social significance of earthen architecture across a wide range of prehistoric and protohistoric contexts. Drawing on evidence from the Mediterranean, Europe, the Near East and South America, the chapters examine construction techniques, architectural traditions, domestic and monumental structures, and adopt approaches including experimental reconstruction and the application of advanced archaeometric and micromorphological techniques. Together, they reveal how earthen buildings provide unique insights into technological innovation, cultural interaction, collective labour and the organisation of past communities. The volume also considers the continuing relevance of earthen building traditions within contemporary debates on heritage management and sustainable construction, demonstrating the enduring value of these ancient practices in addressing modern challenges.
