Mapping Marginality: Landscape as Biography in Central Achaia Phthiotis, Greece

SSHRC Awarded IDG 2019: This IDG project aims at developing an inclusive approach to landscape by studying it through the lens of 'biography' and using cutting edge methods of archaeological prospection. I have selected a test area of 600 hectares of forested countryside in Achaia Phthiotis, a boundary region between three provinces in Central Greece, which harbours a wealth of unexplored archaeological data, such as tombs, fountain houses and settlements. Using a multiscalar perspective, I plan to map, survey and analyze this perceived 'marginal' area to find patterns of connectivity, continuity and discontinuity in human landscape interaction in this region’s wider history of the longue durée.
