Archaeology in Greece 2010 − 2011 49

چکیده
Introduction The Peloponnese is a large area, and as such has attracted much archaeological interest. The volume of reported material means that there are some significant emerging trends visible in the data for 2010. First, as in other areas of Greece, there is a significant push towards interdisciplinary research, with archaeological science, careful contextualized readings of primary sources and new methodologies visible within single projects. Second, there is also an increased focus on issues of scale and spatial relationships – both across landscapes, in the continued use of archaeological field survey and various remote sensing techniques, and within landscapes, in the exploration of surface/sub-surface relationships. And third, there is evidence of a much more critical approach to topography that seeks to understand not only the physical layout of urban spaces, but the ways in which cultural memory shapes those spaces over time.
