Description

BOOK DESCRIPTION
A volume representing collaborative research between the Swedish universities of Kalmar and Stockholm and the University of Sheffield in the UK. The themes centred on the investigation of cultural diversity in the 3rd millennium BC in the British Isles and Scandinavia, not so much to divine any prehistoric cultural links between the two in that period but to compare and contrast empirical evidence and theoretical approaches. The papers presented in this work cover aspects under the headings of 'The Middle Neolithic in Sweden', 'The Beaker People Project', and 'The Stonehenge Riverside Project'.
