- Summary:
- Funded by the European Union, the Populus project is a major study of long-term change in Mediterranean Europe involving a multidisciplinary team of archaeologists, palaeoscientists and historians. Each volume focuses on a different methodological or theoretical aspect of Mediterranean archaeology.
- The directors of regional survey projects have continuously tried to reconstruct population densities, but have been hindered by doubts over the completeness of their samples. These papers show how documentary studies, analysis of excavated remains, and demographic techniques can recreate population trends more accurately.
