From sickles to circles

"In a volume that draws on the expertise of over 20 leading Neolithic and Bronze Age scholars, the rich and complex variety of Neolithic Britain and Ireland is reflected in studies that range from megaliths, Scottish passage-graves and chambered cairns in Orkney to hostilities in early Neolithic Ireland and flintwork in Northern Ireland. The Bronze Age section is headed by a wide-ranging review of Beaker burials and concludes with a review of 40 years of Bronze Age chronologies. Between lie a series of chapters dealing with Bronze Age artefacts and their use in funerary contexts, and a critical evaluation of the dating evidence for the circle henge tradition in Ireland."--Jacket.
