Introduction<br />
<strong>Anthropogenic</strong> (pr<strong>of</strong>oundly human-altered and<br />
human-transported, or HAHT) soils are found<br />
worldwide.<br />
HAHT soils are pervasive in paddys/terraced land,<br />
mine lands, intensive agriculture, and urban areas.<br />
These may be called Anthoscapes (proposed).<br />
Taxa have been included in many classification<br />
systems at different levels, sometimes with diagnostic<br />
horizons or characteristics with criteria.
