This book deals with the earliest period of human settlement in
Britain, proposing a series of archaeological stages for the Lower
and Middle Palaeolithic periods. An introduction on the problems
and methods of studying the Palaeolithic and Pleistocene periods
leads into the technical argument, a sequence of development
derived from evidence of stone artefacts and other signs of human
activity at stratified sites in south-east England. Materials from
all occupied parts of Britain are related to this basic sequence
and, stressing that Britain lay on the edge of the Palaeolithic
world, the author also brings in essential evidence from Europe and
farther afield. The final chapter suggests the probable way of life
of human groups in this period. This broad survey synthesises
material from widely scattered sources including museums from all
over Britain and has an extensive bibliography. Originally
published in 1981.
