Cluster of Excellence ROOTS
The Cluster of Excellence ROOTS - Social, Environmental, and Cultural Connectivity in Past Societies explores the roots of social, environmental, and cultural phenomena and processes that substantially marked past human development. In a broad interdisciplinary conceptual framework, we investigate archaeological and historical ‘laboratories’ under the basic assumption that humans and environments have deeply shaped each other, creating socio-environmental connectivities which still persist today. A better understanding of interwoven past socio-environmental dynamics will shed light on the ‘roots’ of current challenges and crises under diverse economic, ecological, and social conditions.
