ABSTRACT Defining a maritime cultural landscape relies on recognizing both the landscape and seascape as integral to maritime societies. While this concept has been part of anthropological studies for decades, data from the submerged portion of the maritime landscape is often overlooked. The maritime archaeological work needed to collect these data has historically been marginalized within the broader archaeological discipline, but is slowly gaining widespread acceptance. More island and coastal researchers have begun integrating land- and sea-based data into their project designs, promoting recognition of the importance of sea-based data from submerged landscapes and encouraging understanding that maritime cultural landscapes shaped and are shaped by maritime societies. Among the many maritime cultural landscapes worldwide, we present two examples from California that exemplify how researchers are conceptualizing maritime landscapes and gathering data necessary for a holistic view of maritime societies and the spaces that influence their cultural development.

摘要 定义海洋文化景观依赖于承认景观和海景是海洋社会不可或缺的一部分。虽然这个概念几十年来一直是人类学研究的一部分，但来自海洋景观淹没部分的数据经常被忽视。收集这些数据所需的海洋考古工作历来在更广泛的考古学科中被边缘化，但正在慢慢获得广泛接受。越来越多的岛屿和沿海研究人员开始将陆基和海基数据整合到他们的项目设计中，促进人们对来自水下景观的海基数据重要性的认识，并鼓励人们理解海洋文化景观塑造和由海洋社会塑造。在全球众多的海洋文化景观中，
