Mesolithic Horizons
edited by Sinéad McCartan, Rick Schulting, Graeme Warren and Peter Woodman
Mesolithic Horizons marks the publication of the proceedings of the seventh international conference on 'The Mesolithic in Europe' (Belfast 2005). The numbers attending these five-yearly conferences continue to grow - testimony to the growing interest in a period that less than fifty years ago was seen by many as either a 'hiatus' between two more interesting periods, or as a poorly understood phase of little consequence. This is an ...

Mesolithic Studies In The North Sea Basin And Beyond
edited by Clive Waddington and Kristian Pedersen
The North Sea has acted as both physical barrier, separating regions from each other, and as the principal means of communication between the same. This duality can also be seen in its potential to be both yielding and destructive; providing food and resources, but also being capable of causing catastrophe. These paradoxical qualities are unlikely to have been lost on our hunter-gatherer ancestors, and they remain relevent to the way that the sea ...

Shadows of a Northern Past: Rock Carvings in Bohuslän and Ostfold

Over 100 of the most complex and varied sites, containing many thousands of images, are presented in new plans and photographs. The variety and precision of the methods of recording have revealed hitherto unknown carvings and new details on many of the sites, including some of the best-known ...

Submerged Prehistory
edited by Jonathan Benjamin, Clive Bonsall, Catriona Pickard and Anders Fischer
Major events of human prehistory such as the post-glacial recolonisation of Northern Europe and the spread of agriculture through the Mediterranean took place on landscapes that are now, at least partially, underwater. Large parts of this submerged terrain are accessible to divers and can be investigated archaeologically. Prehistoric underwater research has emerged in recent decades as a distinct sub-discipline, developing approaches and ...

Bronze Age Connections: Cultural Contact in Prehistoric Europe
edited by Peter Clark
The discovery of the Dover Bronze Age boat sixteen years ago continues to inspire and stimulate debate about the nature of seafaring and cultural connections in prehistoric Europe; the twelve papers presented here reflect an increasing recognition of cross-channel similarities and a coming together of maritime ('wet') and terrestrial ('dry') archaeology.

Contents: Building new connections (Peter Clark); Encompassing the sea: 'maritories' ...

Shell Middens in Atlantic Europe
edited by Nicky Milner, Oliver E Craig and Geoffrey N Bailey
The archaeological investigation of shell middens has a long and rich history. By the mid 1830s, the presence of artefacts found with large accumulations of shell along the Danish coast had successfully demonstrated that these sites were the result of human activity rather than natural processes. At about the same time in other parts of Europe, shell middens were also being discovered and written about - a process which continued throughout ...

Interweaving Worlds: Systemic Interactions in Eurasia, 7th to the 1st Millennia BC
edited by Toby C. Wilkinson, Susan Sherratt and John Bennet
How do we understand the systemic interactions that took place in and between different regions of prehistoric Eurasia and their consequences for individuals, groups and regions on both a theoretical and empirical basis? Such interactions helped create economic and cultural spheres that were mutually dependent yet distinct. This volume, emerging from a conference hosted in memory of Professor Andrew Sherratt in Sheffield in April 2008 and in ...

From Surface Collection to Prehistoric Lifeways: Making Sense of the Multi-Period Site of Orlovo, South East Bulgaria
edited by John Chapman
The communities who lived in the Balkans between 7000 and 4000 Cal. BC have been the focus of intensive and increasingly inter-disciplinary research for the last forty years. Dwelling between the warm, dry Mediterranean zones of the Aegean and Anatolia and the cooler and snowier Central European heartlands, these communities created distinctive social formations that left enduring marks on today's landscapes.

One of the key trends in ...
