About

    Cultural landscapes refer to the interactions between humans and their environments over time, resulting in landscapes that are shaped by cultural practices, beliefs, and values. This research area focuses on studying how humans have modified and adapted to their environments, as well as understanding the social, economic, and political factors that influence the creation and preservation of cultural landscapes. Researchers in this field may examine a wide range of landscapes, including urban areas, agricultural lands, sacred sites, and historic districts, in order to better understand the ways in which culture and nature coexist and interact. The study of cultural landscapes often involves interdisciplinary approaches that draw on fields such as geography, anthropology, archaeology, history, and environmental studies.
