Historians have linked these caliphates with the so-called 'Islamic Green Revolution'-the introduction of new crops and agricultural practices that transformed the economies of regions under Muslim rule. Increasingly, archaeological studies have problematised this largely text-based model of agrarian innovation, yet much of this research remains regionally and methodologically siloed. Focusing on the Western Mediterranean, the authors offer a theoretically informed, integrated environmental archaeology approach through which to contextualise the ecological impact of the Arab-Berber conquests. Its future application will allow a fuller evaluation of the scale, range and significance of agricultural innovations during the 'medieval millennium'.}, organization = {European Research Council (ERC) 101071726 949367}, organization = {Medio Natural y Sociedad en la Andalucia Medieval (MENASAM) A-HUM-308-UGR18}, organization = {International Co-I on the Landscapes of (Re) conquest project - AHRC AH/R013861/1}, publisher = {Cambridge University Press}, keywords = {Islamic Mediterranean}, keywords = {Agriculture}, keywords = {Crops}, keywords = {Climate change}, keywords = {Resilience}, keywords = {Agrarian relations}, title = {Re-thinking the ‘Green Revolution’ in the Mediterranean world}, doi = {10.15184/aqy.2023.91}, author = {Kirchner, Helena and García-Contreras Ruiz, Guillermo and Fenwick, Corisande and Pluskowski, Aleks}, }
