Landscape archaeology has a lot to offer to landscape ecology, being an interdisciplinary approach that emphasizes the study of long-term human–environment dynamics. We outline different conceptualizations of landscape in landscape archaeology and illustrate the potential of the approach for collaborating with landscape ecologists by describing a case study from the multi-period site of Arslantepe, located in the Malatya province of eastern Anatolia, Turkey. We use an agent-based modeling platform to understand the socio-economic transformations at Arslantepe during the Early Bronze Age-I. These simulations revealed long-term dynamics of grassland and woodland under different climate and population scenarios. It was found that both grassland and woodland responded most strongly to changes in population, with woodlands being more sensitive. Further, it becomes evident that the adapted site-tethered pastoralism could have brought more sustainable land use practices. The example shows the tremendous potential landscape archaeology has for studying long-term sustainability issues, especially related to modes of production. The landscape archaeological perspective can be linked with expertise provided by landscape ecologists, and we propose more in-depth collaboration of these two fields that offer diverse yet complementary perspectives.

通过土耳其安纳托利亚东部的案例研究探索景观生态学和景观考古学的共同点

景观考古学对景观生态学有很多贡献，它是一种跨学科的方法，强调对长期人类-环境动态的研究。我们概述了景观考古学中景观的不同概念，并通过描述位于土耳其安纳托利亚东部马拉蒂亚省的 Arslantepe 多时期遗址的案例研究，说明了与景观生态学家合作的方法的潜力。我们使用基于代理的建模平台来了解早期青铜时代 I 期间 Arslantepe 的社会经济转型。这些模拟揭示了不同气候和人口情景下草地和林地的长期动态。结果表明，草地和林地对种群变化的反应最为强烈，林地更为敏感。更多，很明显，经过调整的场地束缚式畜牧业本可以带来更可持续的土地利用做法。这个例子显示了景观考古学在研究长期可持续性问题方面的巨大潜力，尤其是与生产方式相关的问题。景观考古学的观点可以与景观生态学家提供的专业知识联系起来，我们建议这两个领域进行更深入的合作，提供不同但互补的观点。
