Material Engagements: Studies in Honour of Colin Renfrew
ISBN: 9781902937267 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The subject matter of archaeology is the engagement of human beings, now and in the past, with both the natural world and the material world they have created. All aspects of human activity are potentially relevant to archaeolgical research, and conversely, the ways in which others, especially artists and anthropologists, have investigated the world are of interest to archaeologists. Archaeological artefacts and sites are also used by groups and nations to establish identity, and for financial gain, both through tourism and trade in antiquities. Colin Renfrew has actively engaged with art,...

The Neolithic-Bronze Age Transition in Britain: A critical review of some archaeological and craniological concepts
ISBN: 9780860547716 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Subtitled a critical review of some archaeological and craniological concepts', this is an innovative and controversial study of the Beaker Culture problem; diffusion or migration into Britain. The first part of the book critically reviews previous work on the problem and suggests that the processualist revolt against migrational explanations might have been an error in this case. The second part presents an original study of English Neolithic and Bronze Age crania which, although inconclusive, moves a step nearer to a migrationist explanatory framework.
