This is a great work by one of the pioneers of modern
archaeology. The period covered is from 1700 to 700 B.C. and is
mainly concerned with the author s field work in western Britain.
It deals with burial ritual dances, processions, "houses of the
dead," the objects deposited, the building of the barrow; and it
shows by line drawings and photographs how scientific excavation
nowadays is planned and executed.
The book gathers together an immense amount of research
completed over a long span of years on burials and the ceremonial
which attended them. Originally published in 1959."
