Taking examples from all over the world, this book aims to demonstrate their value for understanding heritage landscapes and for appreciating their aesthetics. It is organised around different types of landscape and the processes that created them, rather than regionally or on the basis of age. It includes a large number of archaeological sites that have been designated as UNESC0 World Heritage Sites. Google Earth has proved to be important for demonstrating some of the threats that major sites have been exposed to, including during recent wars in the Middle East.  The landscapes discussed are those of Water Management, Agricultural Management, War, Burial, Mines, Quarries and Salterns, Cities and Settlements, Tells, Theatres, Amphitheatres, and Hippodromes, Churches, Temples, Pagodas, and Mosques, and Geoglyphs. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andrew Goudie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53652377633095,"sku":"9783031955556","price":149.79,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/5455\/2903\/files\/landscape-heritage-of-the-world-with-google-earth-ebook-cover.webp?v=1775359281"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/5455\/2903\/collections\/andrew-goudie-autor-kollektion.webp?v=1775359279","url":"https:\/\/www.cinebuch.de\/collections\/andrew-goudie.oembed","provider":"CineBuch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
