Resources form the basis of the existence of societies. They can be material andimmaterial, and their character is culturally shaped. Resources are usually not usedin isolation, but in combination with other resources - as ResourceAssemblages thatcan change over time as a result of complex relationships. Dealing with such Resource-Assemblages shapes cultural landscapes in which social groups have their base andorganise, shape and control these landscapes in a specifi c, culturally formed wayaccording to the existing circumstances.This volume focuses on the current state of research on resource use in the Bronze Agein the south of the Iberian Peninsula with a temporal perspective up to the presenttime. Short-term and long-term trends of landscape design to facilitate the utilisationof resources will be discussed as well as the interrelation of social dynamics andresource use.
