ISBN: 9780957559202 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 517 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Charting a decade of intensive fieldwork along a 2km stretch of the Colne Fen, Earith fen-edge, the scope of these books is formidable and together they include the work of 65 contributing specialists (with a foreword by Ian Hodder). The fieldwork involved innovative methodologies, and groundbreaking scientific and micro-sampling studies are presented within the volumes. Portions of text are, moreover, avowedly experimental (e.g. intertextuality and antiquarian-informed perspectives) and it explores the long-term interplay of landscape process and (proto-) historicism. Appropriate to the...

The Bell Beaker Transition in Europe: Mobility and Local Evolution During the 3rd Millennium BC
ISBN: 9781782979272 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Could the circulation of objects or ideas and the mobility of artisans explain the unprecedented uniformity of the material culture observed throughout the whole of Europe? The 17 papers presented here offer a range of new and different perspectives on the Beaker phenomenon across Europe. The focus is not on Bell Beaker pottery but on social groups (craft specialists, warriors, chiefs, extended or nuclear families), using technological studies and physical anthropology to understand mobility patterns during the 3rd millennium BC. Chronological evolution is used to reconstruct the rhythm of...

Flint Daggers in Prehistoric Europe
ISBN: 9781785700187 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For more than a century flint daggers have been among the most closely studied and most heavily published later prehistoric lithic tools. It is well established that they are found across Europe and beyond, and that many were widely circulated over many generations. Yet, few researchers have attempted to discuss the entirety of the flint dagger phenomenon. The present volume brings together papers that address questions of the regional variability and socio-technical complexity of flint daggers and their production. It focuses on the typology, chronology, technology, functionality and meaning...

Connected by the Sea: Proceedings of the Tenth International Symposium on Boat and Ship Archaeology, Denmark 2003
ISBN: 9781785701573 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The 10th International Symposium on Boat and Ship Archaeology was held in Roskilde, Denmark in 2003. The theme of the meeting was -Connected by the Sea-, and was designed to emphasize the role of the sea, seafaring and watercraft as bridges rather than barriers. Maritime archaeology tends to take place within national borders, with a national focus, yet the very premise of seafaring is the desire to travel beyond the horizon to establish contact with other places and cultures. The conference theme was chosen to encourage the maritime archaeological community to think in international terms.

Turning Stone to Bread: A Diachronic Study of Millstone Making in Southern Spain
ISBN: 9780992633653 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 341 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Millstone quarries are the sites where hard and abrasive stones were extracted to be fashioned into the querns or millstones to grind flour for bread, the staple food of our ancestors. These stones equipped the different grinding mechanisms, from the Prehistoric hand-driven saddle quern to the sophisticated industrial mills driven by wind and water. These little known extraction sites, ubiquitous throughout the European landscape, have been largely neglected. This study, focusing on the southern half of the Iberian Peninsula, attempts to draw attention to these often spectacular sites that...

Revised, updated, and expanded with the latest interpretations and fossil discoveries, the second edition of Oceans of Kansas adds new twists to the fascinating story of the vast inland sea that engulfed central North America during the Age of Dinosaurs.

ISBN: 9789087282608 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Textiles that have been uncovered in archaeological excavations include garments, household fabrics, and sails. But until now, systematic analyses of such discoveries had not yet been undertaken for Dutch artifacts. Closing this considerable gap, Clothes Make the Man focuses on textile remains dating from between 400 and 1000 CE that have been recovered from settlements and cemeteries in what is now the Netherlands. As Chrystel R. Brandenburgh shows, such fabrics enable valuable reconstructions of burial clothing and yield important data about their production processes and...

The Management of the Matobo Hills in Zimbabwe: Perceptions of the Indigenous Communities on Their Involvement and Use of Traditional Conservation Pra
ISBN: 9789087282646 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since 1992, when the World Heritage Committee established its category of "cultural landscapes," scholarly debates have ensued as to how they could best be managed. One approach, which appears to have gained significance over the past two decades, considers using traditional conservation practices in addition to engaging local indigenous communities in the stewardship of these exemplary sites. Based on the perspectives of the indigenous people of the Matobo Hills, this investigation studies the extent to which both traditional conservation practices and local involvement can be germane to the...
