Techniques et sociétés néolithiques
ISBN: 9781841718064 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The technique of sawing was known to be used for the production of polished stone tools in the Neolithic period and is especially attested in the Alpine region. This volume collates evidence for the use of sawing techniques, and the tools used in the manufacturing process, from wetland sites in the Swiss Plateau. Christophe Croutsch examines the use of sawing in the production of long polished blades, as well as more common tools, the organisation of production, social infrastructure and choices and decisions made, along with experimental research carried out to replicate the techniques used....

Southern Turkmenistan in the Neolithic: A petrographic case study
ISBN: 9781841718620 / Angielski / Miękka / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Neolithic period of southern Turkmenistan, Central Asia is the primary focus of this study.

In this study, Chapters 1-3 provide the background critical to an accurate understanding of the typological and petrographic case studies, the insight those studies can provide to our knowledge of the structure of the Jeitun and Keltiminar Neolithic adaptations, and the...

Lithic Analysis in Southwestern France: Middle Paleolithic assemblages from the site of La Quina
ISBN: 9780860548157 / Angielski / Miękka / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lithics from the Mousterian site of La Quina in the Charente region of southern France are used to add to our understanding of Neanderthal technology and subsistence. A comparison of morphological variability, technique of reduction, and reduction intensity for tools from different strata adds a historical dimension to this study. Through these comparisons, the author is able to suggest changes in raw material procurement strategies. This is original research based on six years of sampling at the important Palaeolithic site.

Midlands Prehistory
ISBN: 9780860546115 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most people believe that traditional landscapes did not survive the collapse of Roman Britain, and that medieval open fields and commons originated in Anglo-Saxon innovations unsullied by the past. The argument presented here tests that belief by contrasting the form and management of early medieval fields and pastures with those of the prehistoric and Roman landscapes they are supposed to have superseded. The comparison reveals unexpected continuities in the layout and management of arable and pasture from the fourth millennium BC to the Norman Conquest.
The results suggest a new... Most people believe that traditional landscapes did not survive the collapse of Roman Britain, and that medieval open fields and commons originated in...

EAA 88: Excavations of an Iron Age Settlement and Roman Religious Complex at Ivy Chimneys, Witham, Essex 1978-83
ISBN: 9781852811624 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The site at Ivy Chimneys, Witham, appears to have been occupied continuously throughout the Iron Age, and remained in use until the end of the Roman period. Most traces of domestic Iron Age structures were removed by ploughing, but the surviving ditches seem to indicate more than a simple farmstead. Very large, probably defensive, ditches of late Iron Age date may imply that the settlement at Ivy Chimneys was a focus of activity at that time, and a small amount of circumstantial evidence hints at a religious use for part of the site. The nature of activity in early Roman times is unclear,...

ISBN: 9781905223046 / Angielski / Twarda / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Historic and often picturesque ruins have been an integral part of the British landscape for many centuries. They have been an influencing factor in the development of art, architecture and landscape management.

This book marks a return to an interest in ruins that Michael Thompson had when he wrote on the subject in 1981. This time the interest is in the development of an active relationship between the public and ruins as to how they can be preserved...
