The Use and Reuse of Stone Circles: Fieldwork at Five Scottish Monuments and Its Implications
ISBN: 9781785702433 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 27 dni roboczych. The study of stone circles has long played a major role in British and Irish archaeology, and for Scotland most attention has been focused on the large monuments of Orkney and the Western Isles. Several decades of fieldwork have shown how these major structures are likely to be of early date and recognized that that smaller settings of monoliths had a more extended history. Many of the structures in Northern Britain were reused during the later Bronze Age, the Iron Age and the early medieval period. A series of problems demand further investigation including: when were the last stone circles...

The Lost Dark Age Kingdom of Rheged: The Discovery of a Royal Stronghold at Trusty's Hill, Galloway
