As its title might suggest, this volume sets out to present a new
view of Scotland's Neolithic as seen via its monumental structures.
The papers brought together here came out of a research day at
Cardiff University's School of History and Archaeology in January
2002 and cover a diverse number of topics. They raise questions of
ancestry and worldview, and highlight the amount that can be done
in examining the settings of monuments. Contents include: Not my
type: discourses in monumentality (Kenneth Brophy); The 'henge' and
'hengiform' in Scotland (G. J. Barclay); Choreographed
monumentality: recreating the centre of other worlds at the
monumental complex of Callanish, western Lewis (Cole Henley);
Between a rock and a hard place: rock art and mimesis in Neolithic
and Bronze Age Scotland (Andy Jones).
