- This monograph records an extensive and scientifically cutting-edge programme of original field research on the theme of island sustainability. The intensive ERC funded programme draws on decades of prior research , and examined the environmental, vegetation and soil history of Malta and the role of climate change in the development and decline of prehistoric settlement, enabling original theoretical interpretation. Multi-disciplinary approaches (geology, palynology, molluscs, dating, terraces, archaeology and bioanthropology) combine to describe and explain culture change. Published by a world-leading university institute, the 569 page volume records significant international collaboration, including support of numerous PhD and Masters dissertation studies.
