Popis: The phenomenon currently known as “urban agriculture,” inside or around a city, is studied especially for its current characteristics. The historical aspects are scarcely investigated. The history of cities is the subject of enormous scientific interest from many disciplines, and the historical existence of urban agriculture is well documented. However, aspects regarding agricultural local specificities have been overshadowed over the centuries (space characteristics, food production, built structures, productive and social organisation, techniques, cultures, and traditions).
