Characteristic feature of most Mediterranean landscapes are highly complex and extensive systems of fields, trackways and terraces, but the relationship between these agricultural features and the social context in which they emerge is not clearly understood. Through archaeological, geoarchaeological, environmental and ethnographic study, this research project will build a detailed understanding of the relationship between human decision-making, long-term demographic patterns and the development of such capital investments in the landscape. The main question that will be addresses is whether the construction of terraces and associated structures is directly correlated with periods of dramatic population growth which made it necessary to invest more intensively in less-productive parts of landscape, or whether terraces emerge over a longer time-span, more organically and represent a potential causal factor of demographic growth rather than effect. This question is crucial for understanding the relationship between individual agricultural futures in which such re-useable landscape capital investments are an important issue. For example, rapid construction of terraces across a region provides possible evidence of significant labour organisation encouraged at the community level if not by large state authorities while longer, multi-generational, construction might suggest that highly-complex structures can emerge without the organisation of labour beyond that of the individual household unit.The project will be undertaken on the island of Antikythera, the focus of an ongoing intensive archaeological investigation by the applicants. Many of the problems associated with understanding the relationship between landscape modifications, such as terraces, are militated against because of the highly episodic settlement history which thus improves our ability to link terrace construction with specific phases of the island's past. The outcome will be a clearer understanding of one of the most characteristic features of Mediterranean rural landscapes, and the social and demographic contexts in which they emerge.

大多数地中海景观的特征是高度复杂和广泛的田地、道路和梯田系统，但这些农业特征与其出现的社会背景之间的关系尚不清楚。通过考古学、地质考古学、环境和人种学研究，该研究项目将详细了解人类决策、长期人口模式和景观资本投资发展之间的关系。将要解决的主要问题是梯田和相关结构的建设是否与人口急剧增长时期直接相关，这使得有必要对景观生产力较低的部分进行更集中的投资，或者梯田是否会在更长的时间内出现 -跨度更大，更有机，代表人口增长的潜在因果因素而不是影响因素。这个问题对于理解各个农业期货之间的关系至关重要，其中这种可重复使用的景观资本投资是一个重要问题。例如，跨地区梯田的快速建设提供了可能的证据，表明如果不是大型国家当局的话，社区一级鼓励重要的劳工组织，而较长的、多代人的建设可能表明，在没有劳工组织的情况下，也可能出现高度复杂的结构超出了单个家庭单位的范围。该项目将在安提基西拉岛进行，该岛是申请人正在进行的深入考古调查的重点。由于高度偶然的定居历史，许多与理解景观改造（例如梯田）之间的关系相关的问题都受到了阻碍，从而提高了我们将梯田建设与岛屿过去的特定阶段联系起来的能力。其结果将是对地中海乡村景观最具特色的特征之一以及它们出现的社会和人口背景有更清晰的了解。
