Bouqaia is a basin in the Homs Gap, Syria, at the foot of the Marmarita hills.〔(Haïdar-Boustani, Maya., Neo-lithics 01/07 - 2007 )〕 The geography and geomorphology of this alluvial filled, tectonic depression has been explored as part of a wider investigation of the area by various research bodies. The foci of this study has been archaeological and palaeoenvironmental evolution of the central Levant region.〔(Haïdar-Boustani, Maya., PROSPECTIONS ARCHÉOLOGIQUES À L'OUEST DE LA VILLE DE HOMS ..., d'Histoire et d'Archéologie, Université Saint-Joseph, Beyrouth )〕 The survey project commenced in 2004 as a partnership of the Museum of Lebanese Prehistory, Directorate General of Antiquities and Museums in Syria, the Mila and Fontanals Institution of the Higher Council for Scientific Research (Barcelona) and the International Institute for Prehistoric Research in the University of Cantabria (Santander). Scientific direction was carried out jointly by Dr. Michel Al-Maqdisi (Directorate of Antiquities and Museums of Syria), Dr. Maya Haïdar Boustani (Museum Lebanese Prehistory, LSU) and Dr. Juan José Ibañez (Mila and Fontanals Institution).〔(Museum of Lebanese Prehistory Website - Recherches au Syrie )〕〔JJ Ibáñez, M Haidar-Boustani, M al Maqdissi…, La ocupación prehistórica al oeste de Homs (Siria)〕 Studies of the late pleistocene and early holocene sedimentary record of the besin has defined a stratigraphical framework for further studies of the area. Studies of the sedimentary sequences suggests an aridification phase with seasonal precipitation patterns increasing and reducing total precipitation. Using further archaeological information from the area has shown how palaeoenvironmental changes have contributed to differing settlement strategies in the study area.〔Late Pleistocene and Holocene sedimentary record of the Bouqaia Basin (central Levant, Syria): A geoarchaeological approach by Eneko Iriarte, Andrea L Balbo, Miguel A Sánchez, Jesús E González Urquijo, Juan José Ibáñez Social Sciences › Archaeology Papers In your library Save PDF to library Share OverviewRelated researchComptes Rendus Palevol (2010) Volume: 10, Issue: 1, Pages: 35-47〕 Neolithic or possibly PPNB archaeological site of Tell Marj is located on top of a hill dominating the Bouqaia, in the central-western area of the basin, Tell Ezou is further east.〔M Haïdar-Boustani, JJ Ibáñez, M Maqdissi…., New Data on the Epipalaeolithic and Neolithic of the Homs Gap: Three Campaigns of Archaeological Survey (2004-2006)., 2007〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bouqaia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
