During the Ice Age Scandinavia was submerged under thick ice
sheets, and it was only in the subsequent warmer conditions, as the
ice receded, that colonisation by plants, animals and men became
possible. In this book Grahame Clark examines the expansion of
human settlement into this area, with particular emphasis on the
economic aspects of the societies under discussion. The account is
carried down to the time (3500 3000 BC) when mixed farming,
including cereal agriculture, was being introduced into the area.
The book is fully illustrated and documented by many maps and
tables. It provides a rounded picture of the economy of the first
settlers and their descendants in an area whose archaeological past
has been exceptionally fully investigated and documented. The
colonisation of Scandinavia is considered in its European context,
but the main emphasis lies on the process of change and the
continuity of settlement in the territory itself.
