The MA in Prehistoric Landscape Archaeology is designed for students with an interest in how people have engaged with landscapes and the environment during the prehistoric and protohistoric periods. Students with a background in archaeology, physical geography, environmental science or history are particularly suited to this course. This course offers a unique perspective on landscape archaeology, focusing on human ecology and the interactions of people with their environments. It takes you beyond isolated archaeological sites, buildings or artefacts to explore their context in the wider landscape. You will investigate the varying life ways of humans through the ages, and how people have interacted with the natural world since early prehistory. The course explores the links between landscape theory and practice, and provides a broad foundation in the recognition, recording, interpretation and conservation of archaeological landscapes. The MA in Prehistoric Landscape Archaeology enables you to: demonstrate a knowledge and understanding of research methods appropriate to Landscape Archaeology; understand and critically assess the sources of information pertinent to the study of Landscape Archaeology.
