This subject is conducted in english. This lecture series is dedicated to introducing problems associated with the study of the prehistoric and historical (cultural) landscape, the relationship between human settlements and the natural environment, and the mutual relationships between separate categories of social space. It is oriented towards deepening students' basic knowledge of non-destructive methods of field research, and their application in the investigation of past settlement systems (the forms and structures thereof). It provides a lucid introduction to the main fields applicable in landscape reconstruction (historical and settlement geography, cartography, historical ecology) and introduces the categories and archetypes of European cultural landscapes. The lecture series is complemented by training in particular in modern non-destructive methods for the archaeological investigation of the landscape.
