The Archaeology of Food book series showcases recent developments in the archaeology of food. The series offers new contributions and critical findings in food archaeology, chiefly through case studies that explore issues such as past diets, origins of agriculture, plant and animal domestication and exploitation, global networks of food exchange in the past, colonialism and food, food and gender in ancient and early modern times, food and identity in the past, human-environmental interactions around food, archaeology of food technologies, and archaeological approaches to everyday meals and feasts.
Contributions to the series also consider the relevance of food archaeology to contemporary issues, from sustainable agricultural practice and preserving biodiversity to documenting the effects of globalization and cultural encounters. Read More . . .
