Description<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The ASH Project aims at improving the diachronic archaeological knowledge on the relation between the volcanic soils distribution, their fertility and the development of dense, complex and durable (in the sense of Braudelian longue dur\u00e9e) settlement patterns.<\/p>\n

This improvement in knowledge is intended as a tool to demonstrate the relevance of these soils as a strategic natural resource that has supported dense human populations for several centuries or even millennia, highlighting the need for their conservation and proper management. ASH aims at developing a new high-impact research strategy, based on archaeological records (new surveys, cores, legacy data), pedological and archaeobotanical studies, remote sensing based on Copernicus satellite images and NDVI mapping and sampling.<\/p>\n<\/div>
