Cet ouvrage reflète l'expérience stimulante d'une réflexion internationale sur l'avenir du développement d'une petite ville située dans le Liban du Sud, Saïda. Fruit d'une collaboration entre des étudiants et des professeurs en architecture de paysage, en architecture, en urbanisme et en études touristiques de quatre pays (Canada, Italie, Liban, Maroc), ce workshop présente différents projets de mise en valeur et de développement des paysages périurbains et dévoile les attraits et les singularités d'un territoire oublié, faut-il le rappeler, par le temps et par les événements d'une histoire récente. À l'heure de la reconstruction annoncée du Liban, ce livre est la manifestation tangible de la nécessité de stratégies d'aménagement qui soient soucieuses de l'environnement, de la culture et de l'histoire locale des villes, des paysages et de leurs habitants.

How were the field boundaries created and cultivated by the farmers of prehistoric and Roman Britain transformed into the open fields of medieval England? Historians and archaeologists have posited a complete physical break between the field systems of Roman Britain and the common or open fields of medieval England. Susan Oosthuizen's fascinating research into the landscape history of the Bourn Valley, just west of Cambridge (an area which has been intensively cultivated for at least the last 3,000 years), has uncovered preserved prehistoric field patterns in the medieval furlongs there - startling in the context of 'champion' England. If it were possible to unravel the relationships between pre-open-field and open-field boundaries in the Valley between about 600 and 1100 AD, then a significant step forward might be taken in our understanding of the origins of medieval open-field systems in general. We might begin to understand the processes by which the fields, woods and pastures that developed over the prehistoric millennia and during the Roman centuries were organised into the completely new landscape of the medieval open fields. The unexpected discovery of what appears to be an 8th- or 9th-century proto-open-field pattern seems to indicate a fossilising of the process of development from prehistoric to medieval fields, which Susan Oosthuizen seeks to explain by examining the social, administrative and political contexts within which these changes took place. The newly uncovered evidence allows Oosthuizen to propose a new model for the introduction of common fields in England.

Space and Spatial Analysis in Archaeology is made up of thirty-seven contributions based on and developed from papers presented at the 2001 Chacmool Conference, An Odyssey of Space, one of the first and largest meetings to focus on this increasingly important aspect of archaeological research. The papers discuss studies undertaken in a number of different archaeological settings and incorporate a broad range of methodological and theoretical approaches to spatial analysis. They reflect the roots of spatial archaeology in approaches such as settlement pattern analysis and also look at innovative new directions in the field, such as landscape archaeology and space syntax studies. This range of focus provides a valuable snapshot of the state of spatial research in archaeology as it enters the twenty-first century and reflects its increasing breadth and popularity among archaeological researchers.
