The practice to make palaeogeographical map reconstructions in the Netherlands developed after the Second World War when a lot of regional geological and soil scientific mapping programs were carried out by government institutions and universities. These maps show when and how the surveyed sediments were formed. The palaeogeographical map reconstructions are subsequently used for the understanding and modeling of the long-term coastal evolution, coastal-management issues, landscape-archaeological purposes and for education and public information reasons. Geoarchaeological investigations play an important role in this study. Geological and palaeo-environmental data from archaeological excavations ('key sites') provided essential information for the palaeolandscape reconstructions. In the presented regional- and local-case studies of this book, examples of these sites are shown.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Vos\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 949143182X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789491431821\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Barkhuis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.70h x 9.20w x 1.10d","brand":"Peter Vos","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44173318258943,"sku":"9789491431821","price":77.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b50554cb-a021-4b3a-a8e6-fe42708f9186.jpg?v=1689792156","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/origin-of-the-dutch-coastal-peter-vos-9789491431821","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
