Über den Autor
Mark Gillings is a Reader in Archaeology at the University of Leicester specialising in the theory and practice of Landscape Archaeology. His fascination with archaeological theory, fieldwork, Geographical Information Systems and prehistoric monumentality are reflected in books such as Spatial Technologies and Archaeology (2002); Avebury (2004); Landscape of the Megaliths (2008) and, most recently, a four-volume critical reader in Landscape Archaeology (2016). Piraye Hacigüzeller is a postdoctoral researcher at the Ghent Centre for Digital Humanities and the Archaeology Department of Ghent University. She has carried out postdoctoral research on the archaeological applications of GIS and critical mapping at KU Leuven and the University of Oxford, and is currently tasked with coordinating geospatial information activities at the Ghent Center for Digital Humanities.Gary Lock is Emeritus Professor of Archaeology at the University of Oxford, with a long-standing interest in the use of computers in archaeology (Using Computers in Archaeology. Towards Virtual Pasts, 2003). He is particularly interested in the use of Geographical Information Systems in archaeology and their relationship to landscape theory and fieldwork practice (Archaeology and Geographical Information Systems, 1995; Beyond the Map. Archaeology and Spatial Technologies, 2000).
