Funded Activity Summary

Agriculture and the Late Bronze Age collapse of the Hittite Empire. National benefit will be accrued through the major scholarly contribution the project makes to a key debate in world archaeology, namely the extent to which environmental change affected ancient complex societies, especially climate change. As such it fosters an awareness of world cultures and the interrelation between political stability and environmental change. The project also will encourage international collaboration between Australian, Turkish and Japanese scholars and will provide training for several research scholars in an area of archaeology in which Australia has a recognised major deficit, namely archaeobotany.
