This study examines the influence of Human Ecodynamics and Historical Ecology to understand the complexities of historical mobility. Based on Landscape Archaeology, this study considers some of these theoretical principles for studying and reconstructing the movements of past human populations. This discussion is grounded on the example of a research project focused on modelling movement and interaction patterns between the Aegean area (Crete) and northeastern African region (Marmarica) from the Late Bronze to Roman times. The project works with multivariate data representative of the routes and non-human factors that may interplay in biocultural processes. Three key aspects structure this article: (1) the emergence of Human Ecodynamics and Historical Ecology in archaeology, (2) their impact on the theoretical evolution of Landscape Archaeology, and (3) the methodological implementation of these principles through a case study. We specifically discuss the strengths of Human Ecodynamics and Historical Ecology to enhance the conceptualisation of mobility by considering the heterarchical interrelationships between human and non-human agents. Our methodological implementations showcase this by using computational approaches to model human pathways influenced by and in constant relationship with their environment. This research thus highlights the importance of transdisciplinary approaches to studying historical mobility from an archaeological and complex systems perspective.

沿（前）历史利比亚海的运动景观：社会生态史的关键

本研究考察了人类生态动力学和历史生态学的影响，以理解历史流动的复杂性。本研究以景观考古学为基础，考虑了一些用于研究和重建过去人类迁徙的理论原则。本讨论基于一个研究项目的示例，该项目的重点是对从青铜时代晚期到罗马时代爱琴海地区（克里特岛）和东北部非洲地区（马尔马里卡）之间的运动和相互作用模式进行建模。该项目使用代表路线和非人类的多变量数据因素这可能在生物文化过程中相互作用。本文的三个关键方面是：（1）人类生态动力学和历史生态学在考古学中的出现，（2）它们对景观考古学理论演变的影响，以及（3）通过案例研究在方法上实施这些原则。我们特别讨论了人类生态动力学和历史生态学的优势，通过考虑人类和非人类主体之间的异质相互关系来增强流动性的概念化。我们的方法实现通过使用计算方法来模拟受环境影响并与环境保持恒定关系的人类路径来展示这一点。因此，这项研究强调了跨学科方法从考古学和复杂系统的角度研究历史流动性的重要性。
