The Neolithic -a period in which the first sedentary agrarian
communities were established across much of Europe-has been a key
topic of archaeological research for over a century. However, the
variety of evidence across Europe, the range of languages in which
research is carried out, and the way research traditions in
different countries have developed makes it very difficult for both
students and specialists to gain an overview of continent-wide
trends. The Oxford Handbook of Neolithic Europe provides the first
comprehensive, geographically extensive, thematic overview of the
European Neolithic -from Iberia to Russia and from Norway to Malta
-offering both a general introduction and a clear exploration of
key issues and current debates surrounding evidence and
interpretation. Chapters written by leading experts in the field
examine topics such as the movement of plants, animals, ideas, and
people (including recent trends in the application of genetics and
isotope analyses); cultural change (from the first appearance of
farming to the first metal artefacts); domestic architecture;
subsistence; material culture; monuments; and burial and other
treatments of the dead. In doing so, the volume also considers the
history of research and sets out agendas and themes for future work
in the field.
