Abstract
ABSTRACTIn the first issue of the Journal of Island & Coastal Archaeology published 10 years ago, Erlandson and Fitzpatrick (2006) outlined eight topics which demonstrated why island and coastal archaeology were relevant to understanding a host of issues related to human cultural and biological evolution across time and space. Here, we evaluate recent trends and developments in island and coastal archaeology and discuss how research over the last decade has changed and continued to illuminate the antiquity of maritime adaptations, human dispersals, historical ecology, and many other issues on a global scale. With rising seas and marine erosion threatening island and coastal archaeological sites around the world, archaeologists face urgent challenges in the coming decades as we continue to promote research and conservation of the global island and coastal archaeological record.
