DESCRIPTION:Buried and submerged landscapes in the lowlands of the Netherl
 ands play a key role in debates on the introduction of farming. First envi
 saged as too wet for human subsistence\, it is becoming more and more clea
 r that these dynamic landscapes were in fact highly suitable for agricultu
 re\, and indeed used for crop cultivation. New geophysical data\, excavati
 ons\, soil micromorphology analyses and other scientific approaches togeth
 er show a new\, complex image of wetland subsistence during the transition
  to farming.\n\n\nBio:\n\nProf. Dr. Ir Hans (D.J.) Huisman\n\nSenior resea
 rcher\, Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands\; Professor of geoarch
 aeology and archaeometry\, University of Groningen\n\nHans Huisman is a ge
 oarchaeologist and archaeometrist. With a background in soil science and g
 eochemistry\, he applies scientific approaches and methods on a wide range
  of archaeological subjects. Major fields of interest are preservation and
  monitoring of archaeological sites\, manufacture and trade of artefacts\,
  (esp. metal and glass)\, use of space and wetland agriculture.\n\nPlease
