Climate and Human Environment (Accredited Course)

The impact of living beings upon our natural environment can not be overestimated, and this module aims to guide students through the various methodologies which can be employed when examining this fascinating area of archaeological study. Beginning with studies of climate, we will explore how plant remains, invertebrates and vertebrates have affected the modern world, before examining the urban environment and looking to the challenges of the future. This thought-provoking module will make use of case studies to show how environment and human activity have been closely linked in the past, and illustrate the importance of interpretation when understanding environmental change.
