This is the first book ever devoted to the chambered tombs of the
Isle of Man and, though there are no more than nine surviving
monuments, they are of considerable interest and importance because
of the central location of the island in the north Irish Sea where
cultural influences and traditions of tomb building are mixed –
and no doubt populations too. These monuments, still impressive
reminders of the past in our contemporary landscape, belong to the
early 4th millennium BC when farming, one of the most significant
movers of change in society, first came to the Isle of Man. These
vast stone chambers speak of the power of ancestors, the continuity
of family groups and the importance of the land and territory which
sustained them. Work on this book was begun in the 1960s by Audrey
Henshall, the foremost authority on these monuments in Britain. It
has been edited and brought up to date for publication by Frances
Lynch and Peter Davey and contains a comprehensive study of
previous work on the tombs, new plans and commentary on each site,
and also a review of the associated finds from excavation.
Appendices provide the final reports on previously unpublished
excavations at King Orry’s Grave and Ballaharra.
