The goal of this project is to describe human landscape transformations around three hilltop settlements as
indigenous and foreign economic production and political control expanded and declined over time. These hilltops
are Mokarta (Late Bronze Age) Monte Polizzo (Early Iron Age), and Halicyae (Colonial Era).
This project utilizes a systematic procedure of regional survey and site excavation to help describe these transformations
and examine long-term cultural change through more than a dozen cultural contexts.
