Knjiga raziskuje pojav kolišč z inovativnega vidika: upošteva in poskuša rekonstruirati procese nastajanja in razgradnje, ki potekajo in sodelujejo pri ustvarjanju arheološkega zapisa, ki ga ne odkrijemo po tisočletjih, pri čemer se osredotoča predvsem na evropske študije primerov. Drugi del knjige je usmerjen v raziskovanje pojava koliščarskih naselbin na Ljubljanskem barju, pri čemer so na novo začrtani glavni koraki raziskave, odkritja in morebitna nova osvetlitev nekaterih še vedno odprtih vprašanj.
After more than 3500 years of occupation in the Neolithic and Bronze Age, the many lake-dwellings around the Circum-Alpine region ‘suddenly’ came to an end. Throughout that period alternating phases of occupation and abandonment illustrate how resilient lacustrine populations were against change: cultural/environmental factors might have forced them to relocate temporarily, but they always returned to the lakes. So why were the lake-dwellings finally abandoned and what exactly happened towards the end of the Late Bronze Age that made the lake-dwellers change their way of life so drastically? The new research presented here draws upon the results of a four-year-long project dedicated to shedding light on this intriguing conundrum. Placing a particular emphasis upon the Bronze Age, a multidisciplinary team of researchers has studied the lake-dwelling phenomenon inside out, leaving no stones unturned, enabling identification of all possible interactive socioeconomic and environmental factors that can be subsequently tested against each other to prove (or disprove) their validity. By refitting the various pieces of the jigsaw a plausible, but also rather unexpected, picture emerges.
The chance discovery in 1854 of a prehistoric lake village on Lake Zurich triggered what we now call the - 'lake-dwelling phenomenon'. One hundred and fifty years of research and animated academic disputes have transformed the phenomenon into one of the most reliable sources of information in wetland archaeology. This definitive volume provides an overview of the development of lake village studies, explores the impact of a range of scientific techniques on the settlements and considers how the public can relate to this evocative and exciting branch of archaeology. It explains how the multidisciplinary research context has significantly improved our knowledge of prehistoric wetland communities, from an environmental as well as a cultural perspective.

A survey of the history and current state of research on lake-dwelling in Europe. Timed to mark the 150th anniversary of the beginning of the study of prehistoric lake-dwellers.
Wetland Archaeology and Beyond offers an appreciative study of the people, and their artefacts, who occupied a large variety of worldwide wetland archaeological sites. The volume also includes a comprehensive explanation of the processes involved in archaeological practice and theory.

This Handbook sets out the key issues and debates in the theory and practice of wetland archaeology which has played a crucial role in studies of our past. Due to the high quantity of preserved organic materials found in humid environments, the study of wetlands has allowed archaeologists to reconstruct people's everyday lives in great detail.
