Palaeoecology: Wood and Wood Charcoal Identification

Oliver Nelle

The aim of the course is to get aquainted with the analysis of wood and wood charcoal as a method of palaeoecology, including taking samples in the field, sample processing, microscopical work, data analysis. Wood is only preserved in wet, oxygen-free conditions. Charred wood/charcoal is very resistant against microbial attack and thus is found everywhere. They thus deliver information - as do pollen grains and other plant macrofossils - about past vegetation. Possible sample sites are archaeological excavations, soils, soil sediments (colluvisols), historical charcoal production sites etc. At the end, you should be familiar with the potentials and limits of wood and wood charcoal analysis and have a first insight into wood anatomy and the application of microscopical wood determination.

The Role of Archaeology and History in the Contemporary World

Anthonia Davidovic

Archaeological and historical knowledge is attracting much interest in society today. Many exhibitions in museums and at sites, documentary movies, internet pages and books presenting archaeological and historical knowledge in various ways, motivated by different intensions (cf. offering identity constructions, gaining income through tourists). The questions what kind of knowledge to present, in what form and accompanied by which interests and motivations are addressed in archaeological and historical debates to a greater degree since the last years.
The intension of the discussion group is to discuss own intensions and practices of knowledge transfer, reading papers from archaeologists and historians concerned with these questions and analysing examples of exhibitions, movies or others.
