THE TRADITIONAL EXPLOITATION OF „THE LAND OF VRANCEA” WATER RESOURCES. ASPECTS OF CULTURAL GEOGRAPHY

Nicolae Damian, Alexandra Tătaru, Romania

The theme suggested for the International Conference with the title Water resources and the wet lands/areas offers a retrospective overlook towards the utilisation of the water resources from `The land of Vrancea` through an analysis of classical cultural Geography. Our study offers elements that concern  the traditional exploitation through water mills and other technical instalations of countrymen, which unfortunately have dissapeared  from the actual geographycal landscape- from this perspective our study is meant to restore the geographycal cultural landscape.
