00925njm 22002777a 4500 dc Kirchner, Helena author García-Contreras, Guillermo author Fenwick, Corisande author Pluskowski, Aleks author 2023 From the seventh century AD, successive Islamic polities were established around the Mediterranean. Historians have linked these caliphates with the so-called 'Islamic Green Revolution' - the introduction of new crops and agricultural practices that transformed the economies of regions under Muslim rule. Increasingly, archaeological studies have problematised this largely text-based model of agrarian innovation, yet much of this research remains regionally and methodologically siloed. Focusing on the Western Mediterranean, the authors offer a theoretically informed, integrated environmental archaeology approach through which to contextualise the ecological impact of the Arab-Berber conquests. Its future application will allow a fuller evaluation of the scale, range and significance of agricultural innovations during the 'medieval millennium'. http://hdl.handle.net/2072/481153 Agrarian relations Agriculture Climate change Crops Islamic Mediterranean Resilience Re-thinking the 'Green Revolution' in the Mediterranean world
