Geoarchaeology is a cross-disciplinary scientific field that integrates both geoscientific and archaeological approaches to study human–environmental interactions in former landscapes. During the past few years, this discipline has increasingly become an integral part of both archaeological practice and research. In addition to case studies from different regions and archaeological contexts, this special issue will pool contributions that deal with new methods and concepts in this rapidly evolving discipline.
