description: The island of Crete consists largely of mountains. How did this mountainous character of the landscape influence settlement patterns, economic strategies, culture and religion? What impact did these human activities have on the environment? To answer these questions, a theory section evaluates methods, the geology, flora and fauna of Crete as well as approaches to mountain archaeology. Five geographical and three thematic case studies then analyse, review and synthesize man-environment interactions across the island and over time.
