Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The paper considers the role of riverine islands and islets, which studies of floodplain evolution have shown were far more common in the past. The author argues that the location of a site on a riverine (or lake) island can never be coincidental, due to its functional disadvantages, and can rarely be explained by access to resources; instead such a location must have meaning in ritual and societal terms and have been conceived as being qualitatively different from the rest of the landscape. |
