Description: "The Priority Programme 1630 "Harbours from the Roman Period to the Middle Ages" funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) from the years 2012-2018 involved 18 projects working on the interdisciplinary research on the phenomenon 'harbour'. After the first 3-year period an international conference titled 'Harbours as objects of interdisciplinary research - Archaeology + History + Geosciences' was held in Kiel in 2015. This volume includes 26 papers from lectures of the conference in which participants from 15 nations present their work approaches and results on harbour research within the five sections 'Plenum Keynotelectures', 'Geophysics and Field Research: Developing Methods', 'Geoarchaeology: Changing Harbour Environments', 'Archaeological Features: Harbour Facilities and Infrastructure' and 'Written and Iconographic Sources: Complementing the Material Evidence'. The present volume is predominantly devoted to archaeological and historical oriented papers which are primarily structured geographically as well as partly topical."--
