商品簡介
The series presents reflective versions of presentations at the Group's meetings in London, the 10 essays here representing most of the papers delivered at the November 2001 sitting and only now prepared for publication. Though the title of the volume suggests an effort to find common features throughout the region, the range of topics in the papers seem closer to the search for regional diversity that characterized the session itself. Within sections on defining regional Neolithics, material culture, and regional and local studies, they discuss such mattes ad the depiction of regional geographies of the Neolithic, what querns can reveal about corn grinding in southern England, Cumbria s a Neolithic region, and the Dublin coastal group as an examples of the role of islands in defining identity and regionality during the Neolithic.
