Abstract

Abstract This chapter outlines the theoretical background and methodology adopted to construct an archaeological model of maritime interaction. After problematizing concepts of regionalism, the discussion draws on maritime landscape studies to embrace the diverse geographies and temporalities of different seaborne mobilities that integrated communities around maritime space. To organize this material record of diverse seafaring practices, the analysis turns to conceptual approaches and formal modeling tools of networks. These provide the framework for a multiscalar model of maritime interaction that unfolds over the next chapters.
