Felix Riede

When first asked to comment upon the contribution of Arponen et al. on environmental determinism in archaeology – a red flag to many – I became excited that the topic is receiving attention again and, not least, that this attention is translating into printed debate. I commend the authors on their effort, also for bringing together multiple voices in their article. All too rarely do theoretical contributions translate into multiple authorship. I cannot in any way disagree with their key conclusions, namely that investigations of deep-time relations between humans and the environment are not just timely but important, and that archaeology should make full use of its rich array of data, cases and dissemination possibilities to investigate them and make them relevant in the present.

环境决定论和考古学。红旗,红鲱鱼

当第一次被要求评论 Arponen 的贡献时等。关于考古学中的环境决定论——对许多人来说是一个危险信号——我很高兴这个话题再次受到关注,尤其是这种关注正在转化为印刷辩论。我赞扬作者的努力,也赞扬他们在文章中汇集了多种声音。理论贡献很少转化为多个作者。我不能不同意他们的主要结论,即对人类与环境之间的深层次关系的调查不仅及时而且重要,考古学应该充分利用其丰富的数据、案例和传播可能性,调查它们并使它们与当前相关。
