Title: Manipulated landscapes
Description: "Landscapes are our habitats which constantly change. Humans have contributed to these changes by increasingly manipulating landscapes across time and, in particular, during the last 10,000 years. Humans use resources and adjust nature to their own needs. The development of previous as well as present human societies is therefore inseprably linked to changes in landscapes. In turn, these changes have decisively influenced our thoughts, behavior and actions. Viewing and deciphering the traces of humans in landscapes from different points of view opens new perspectives in order to better comprehend the dynamic and interactive processes between humans and the environment. This understanding is vital for the further development of our present society and environmental awareness"--
