Eastern Europe, in this book, embraces the area formally
referred to as the Marchlands of Europe, sometimes as Eastern
Central Europe, and which included, when this book was originally
published in 1971, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Rumania, Hungary,
Czechoslovakia, East Germany and Poland. This book presented for
the first time the archaeological material related to the
prehistory of Central and West Europe, describing the evidence for
the earlier prehistory settlement patterns, means of subsistence
and material culture in the various natural environments of this
area. It looks at the Baltic coast, the north and east European
plains, the Carpathian mountain ring, the Danube basin and the
Adriatic and Black Sea coasts. The evidence for late Mesolithic
hunting-fishing groups is examined, their techniques and their
reaction to the introduction and spread of agriculturalists, as
well as the development and activities of both food-gatherers and
food-producers until the early use and manufacture of metal
objects. 3000 years of prehistory are covered in a way which is
designed to be intelligible and useful to all those who are
interested in prehistory and in eastern Europe."
