The Oxford Handbook of the European Bronze Age is a wide-ranging
survey of a crucial period in prehistory during which many social,
economic, and technological changes took place. Written by expert
specialists in the field, the book provides coverage both of the
themes that characterize the period, and of the specific
developments that took place in the various countries of Europe.
After an introduction and a discussion of chronology, successive
chapters deal with settlement studies, burial analysis, hoards and
hoarding, monumentality, rock art, cosmology, gender, and trade, as
well as a series of articles on specific technologies and crafts
(such as transport, metals, glass, salt, textiles, and weighing).
The second half of the book covers each country in turn. From
Ireland to Russia, Scandinavia to Sicily, every area is considered,
and up to date information on important recent finds is discussed
in detail. The book is the first to consider the whole of the
European Bronze Age in both geographical and thematic terms, and
will be the standard book on the subject for the foreseeable
future.
