The project focuses on researching the development of resources in favourable and unfavourable natural environments from an archaeological and archaeopedological perspective. Central is the question of settlement and land use dynamics. With the interdisciplinary analysis of soils, in particular colluvia, and their archaeological context, settlement and land use dynamics and the associated potential movements of people (for example in the form of settlement relocations) are deciphered. The focus of the third phase of funding is a transition period from favour to disfavour in one and the same area (here: Hochdorf/Enz) in order to better understand the temporal dynamics of settlement and land use.
