This article introduces landscape archaeology as an important branch of archaeology, emphasizing its focus on surface spatial structure, human spatial cognition, and social practice activities, as well as its regional and comprehensive research characteristics. The Archaeological Research on the Cultural Landscape of the Stonecircle in Senegal and Gambia by Professor Gao Chang, a Cameroonian author, based on the field survey data of the Stonecircle in Senegal and Gambia in the UNESCO The World Heritage List, recorded the structure and layout of the Stonecircle in Senegal and Gambia in detail through six observable dimensions, and analyzed and discussed the funeral ceremony and its characteristics at that time. The book presents a historical picture of human transformation of nature in the Senegambia region, proposes hypotheses about the relationship between megalithic circles and territory, and delves into the relationship between social history and natural history in the Senegambia region. Professor Gao Chang's research not only reflects a systematic study of the Senegambia Giant Stone Circle, but also provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of the historical development of the Senegambia region over 3000 years through the arrangement of chapters. In addition, the book also explores the relationship between the resistance activities of the Basari and Bedik peoples and cultural landscapes, and evaluates the impact of their resistance behavior on the landscape. The book "Archaeological Research on the Cultural Landscape of the Giant Stone Circle in Senegambia" is vivid and interesting, with the rigor of academic works and the interest of popular science reading materials. It is a case of academic cooperation between China and Africa.
