Purpose
Abstract In the Aegean region, clarification of causal links between climate and ecosystem change on the one hand and sociocultural evolution on the other hand has yet been hindered by the scarcity of sufficiently master records of climatic and environmental change that can be aligned with the archeological record. M144/1 circumvented existing limitations via the novel approach of analyzing marine sediment cores from coastal settings off archeological sites for their terrestrial and marine environmental signals. Integration of these data with the regions unique archeological record will allow detailed assessment of how climatic and environmental change interacted with socioeconomic evolution and human resource demands. Though multibeam has been recorded during the cruise, it was not a major focus and the responsible party provided no acquisition information.
