This book is for anyone starting out to understand the prehistoric
life of Britain from the first human occupation 450,000 years ago,
until the Roman conquest in AD 43. James Dyer here succeeds in
bringing to life a thriving picture of the people and customs of
the Stone, Bronze and Iron Ages, based on the sometimes sparse
clues presented by prehistoric archaeological sites across Britain.
For many readers, Ancient Britain will provide the first chance to
get to grips with the present state of our knowledge of prehistoric
agriculture, settlement, trade and ritual. The rise of power, with
the development of a class system at the hands of the first metal
users, is charted through to the growth of wealth and the emergence
of a warlike and advanced Iron Age society - a society that was
nonetheless unable to withstand the might of Rome. With over 130
illustrations and photographs, including a number of specially
drawn reconstructions, this highly visual book is an ideal primer
for all students of prehistory and all those who are simply
interested in the subject.
