Introduction
Problems of chronology and function in survey assemblages: the 1999 Hidden Landscape debate reviewed
Hidden Landscapes: METHODS AND METHODOLOGY
1. Making sense of a hidden Sicilian landscape: geoarchaeological and GIS investigations of field-survey data
2. CALEROS: an erosion-deposition model for landscape archaeology
3. A prehistoric hidden landscape in an alluvial plain: investigations in the Florentine area
4. Intensive survey and protohistoric settlement in the middle Guadiana basin (Badajoz, Spain)
5. From space to place or from site to landscape? Mind the gap
6. Magnetic susceptibility prospection in northern Calabria
7. Integrating digital aerial photogrammetry and geophysical prospection in the Gargano fint mining landscape (south-eastern Italy)
8. Grotta del Romito (Cosenza): latest Pleistocene landscape
Hidden Landscapes: MOUNTAINS AND UPLANDS
9. The Visible Landscape: inferring Mesolithic settlement dynamics from multifaceted evidence in the south-eastern Alps
10. Toward an understanding of archaeological visibility: the case of the Trentino (Southern Alps)
11. Buried landscapes and cultural landscapes of the mountainous areas of Lombardy in pre- and protohistory
12. The Southern French Alps Landscape Project:an archaeological and palynological study of high-altitude settlement areas in the Southern French Alps
13. Fire making water on the Ligurian Apennines
14. Shepherds of a coastal range: the archaeological potential of the Velebit mountain range (eastern Adriatic)
15. A hidden prehistoric landscape in the Region of Madrid (Spain): the significance of the mountains during the 3rd millennium BC
16. Mountains and shore: sites and communication routes of Copper Age western Liguria
17. Ritual use of a mountain landscape: Iron Age sites in the lower Valle Sabbia (Brescia – Italy)
18. A journey through ‘hidden’ or forgotten landscapes in the northern Veneto. Patterns and biases in material culture and research methods
19. Two hidden landscapes in central Portugal: Rego da Murta (Alvaiázere) and Ocreza (Mação)
Hidden Landscapes: SEDIMENTARY BASINS
20. Landscape development of the coastal plains of Rome and Grosseto between 20,000 and 3,000 years ago
21. 20,000 Years of landscape evolution at Ca’Tron (Venice, Italy): palaeoenvironment, archaeology, virtual reality webgis
22. A hidden Neolithic landscape in Apulia (southern Italy)
23. Early farming landscapes in the Friuli plain (NE Italy)
24. Remote sensing analysis in the Florentine plain: investigating wetland contexts by comparing QuickBird images and multitemporal aerial photographs
25. Soil use from the Late Chalcolithic to the Early Middle Bronze Age in the central Po plain (northern Italy): new data from buried soils
26. Micromorphology and mineralogy of the SEV core (Santarém, Portugal): evolution from a transitional to a continental sedimentary environment during the Holocene
27. Deposits and prehistoric occupation of Ribeira Ponte da Pedra (Central Portugal)
28. The rediscovery of a 5000-year-old landscape: a copper-age village on the shores of ancient lake Maccarese (Fiumicino, Rome)
29. A hidden perilacustrine settlement: a village and its fields during the Middle Bronze Age
30. A reconstruction of geomorphological and environmental transformations and the peopling of the territory south-east of Rome during recent prehistory
31. Palaeo-environmental observations on the ancient Holocene of the Florentine area
Hidden Landscapes: DISTRIBUTION PATTERNS
32. Fossil Landscapes in the Fiora Valley. Settlement development of prehistoric and late prehistoric communities read through GIS and Remote Sensing
33. A hidden urban landscape: Populonia between survey and excavations
