Abstract

I am delighted to write a foreword for the book Hydrogeomorphic Risk Analysis Affecting Chalcolithic Archaeological Sites from Valea Oii (Bahlui) Watershed, Northeastern Romania. An Interdisciplinary Approach. This book presents the results of the doctoral research undertaken by Ionut Cristi Nicu. The focus of this research is the risks that natural phenomena can present to Chalcolithic archaeological sites in north-eastern Romania. In addition, this book discusses other topics related to the dynamics of past populations in a small catchment area and to interactions between humans and their changing environments.The research presented in this book provides critical new data that contributes new understandings of Romania’s past. Although archaeological excavations have taken place in Romania for more than a century, questions remain regarding the placement of settlements, treatment of the dead and the mobility of the populations. This book helps to answer some of these questions.
