如今，一个考古遗址被嵌入到广泛的关系网络中，这是一个不言而喻的说法。连通性在考古学思维中发挥作用已经有相当长的时间了，考古学家采用以连通性为中心的理论和方法框架已经变得普遍。其中一个例子是网络分析，在过去的二十年里，该领域的兴趣大幅增加。然而，考古学网络分析远不是一门成熟的科学，考古学记录的特点往往会产生具有丰富背景的节点通过纽带连接的网络，而与此形成鲜明对比的是，这些节点通常基于非常有限的连通性证据。此外，考古学网络往往伴随着有限的讨论，通过在物质文化的共同性解释两个网站之间的连接的影响。特别是，使用历史记录来描述网站之间的互动仍然有些罕见。本文以考古历史网络的角度来描述土地使用的做法，在现代早期的冰岛映射的财产记录描述的所有权，资源索赔和社会义务的关系，以及全面的实地考古调查作为广泛的网络之间的相互依存的已知的农庄网站占领的时间。这种方法表明，这些充满活力的网络，在空间和历史上都有记录，经常显示出涌现特性的迹象。当这些站点间的关系开始发挥它们自己的作用时，网络就被切断了，网络线路开始以结和纠缠的形式捆绑在一起。因此，这项研究的目的并不是使用正式的网络分析来量化所呈现的网络，而是以网络为起点来调查人们旨在制定和实现产权，资源主张和交换网络时出现的属性。
It is a truism nowadays to say that an archaeological site is embedded in extensive networks of relations. Connectivity has played a role in archaeological thinking for a considerable amount of time, and the adoption by archaeologists of both theoretical and methodological frameworks centring connectivity has become widespread. One such example is network analysis, which has seen a significant surge in interest within the field over the past two decades. Archaeological network analysis is far from a mature science, however, and the character of the archaeological record tends to yield networks with richly contextualised nodes connected by ties that, in stark contrast, are often based on very limited evidence for connectivity. Furthermore, archaeological networks are often accompanied by limited discussion about the implications for a connection between two sites interpreted through a commonality in material culture. In particular, the use of historical records to contextualise the interactions between sites remains somewhat uncommon. This paper takes an archaeo-historical network perspective by characterising land-use practices in early modern Iceland by mapping property records describing relations of ownership, resource claims and social obligations alongside comprehensive field archaeological surveys as extensive networks of interdependence between the known farmstead sites occupied at the time. This approach shows that these vibrant networks, documented both spatially and historically, regularly show signs of emergent properties. As these intersite relations begin to exert their own agency, the networks are cut, and the network lines begin to bundle up in knots and entanglements. The study, therefore, does not aim to quantify the presented networks using formal network analysis, but to use the networks as a starting point to investigate the properties that emerge as people aim to enact and materialise networks of property rights, resource claims and exchange.
