Abstract
AbstractThe Epipalaeolithic Foragers in Azraq Project is a multi-disciplinary research programme exploring landscape change and prehistoric occupation in the Azraq Basin, Eastern Jordan. Excavations at several Epipalaeolithic sites and geomorphological survey and investigations throughout the basin over the last four years provide a rich record of the interplay between climate, human-induced landscape change, and past settlement and land-use. Here we explore some of these findings with specific attention to changing issues of water availability and sustainable land-use activities in the area.
