Alpine Archaology & History of Resources

We investigate human presence in the Alpine region from its beginnings to the present day. We use archaeological field surveys and targeted excavation campaigns as well as studies of historical sources. There is a strong focus on the relationship between humans and the environment and the importance of regional resources. Close cooperation with colleagues from all other areas of expertise is essential for success.
