What was life like in Scotland between 4000 and 2000 BC? Where were
people living? How did they treat their dead? Why did they spend so
much time building extravagant ritual monuments? What was special
about the relationship people had with trees and holes in the
ground? What can we say about how people lived in the Neolithic and
early Bronze Age of mainland Scotland where much of the evidence we
have lies beneath the ploughsoil, or survives as slumped banks and
ditches, or ruinous megaliths? Each contribution to this volume
presents fresh research and radical new interpretations of the
pits, postholes, ditches, rubbish clumps, human remains and broken
potsherds left behind by our Neolithic forebears.
This book provides the first comprehensive series of maps of the
hillforts of Britain and Ireland, with accompanying commentaries
and broader overviews which interpret the survival and detection of
this evidence in its later prehistoric and early historic contexts.
The authors expertly assess and analyse the available evidence for
over 4,000 hillforts from Shetland to Cornwall to County Clare to a
single standard and present their findings in both map and
descriptive form. Further detailed information is available to
search online via our website.
