Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bogucki (Princeton U.) and Crabtree (anthropology, New York U.) head an impressive group of archaeologists and anthropologists--at universities and museums in the UK, the US, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Hungary, Denmark, Poland, Sweden, and Germany--who have written the entries for this two-volume reference. It is appropriate for undergraduate, advanced high school, and general reader audiences. It spans the end of the Ice Ages until the rise of governments and record-keeping brought prehistory to an end, and the editors have deliberately extended the geographical area considered beyond western Europe to include Slavic lands. The volumes begin with introductory chapters describing the field of archaeology and essential elements of prehistoric cultures, including such topics as settlement patterns, gender, ritual and ideology, and warfare and conquest. Subsequent entries pertain to postglacial foragers, the transition to agriculture, the consequences of agriculture, the age of metal, the Iron Age in Europe, and the early middle ages and migration period. B&w illustrations, maps, diagrams, and drawings support the text. Annotation ♭2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).

Download or read book Salt in Prehistoric Europe written by Anthony Harding and published by Sidestone Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salt was a commodity of great importance in the ancient past, just as it is today. Its roles in promoting human health and in making food more palatable are well-known; in peasant societies it also plays a very important role in the preservation of foodstuffs and in a range of industries. Uncovering the evidence for the ancient production and use of salt has been a concern for historians over many years, but interest in the archaeology of salt has been a particular focus of research in recent times. This book charts the history of research on archaeological salt and traces the story of its production in Europe from earliest times down to the Iron Age. It presents the results of recent research, which has shown how much new evidence is now available from the different countries of Europe. The book considers new approaches to the archaeology of salt, including a GIS analysis of the oft-cited association between Bronze Age hoards and salt sources, and investigates the possibility of a new narrative of salt production in prehistoric Europe based on the role of salt in society, including issues of gender and the control of sources. The book is intended for both academics and the general reader interested in the prehistory of a fundamental but often under-appreciated commodity in the ancient past. It includes the results of the author’s own research as well as an up-to-date survey of current work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge World Prehistory provides a systematic and authoritative examination of the prehistory of every region around the world from the early days of human origins in Africa two million years ago to the beginnings of written history, which in some areas started only two centuries ago. Written by a team of leading international scholars, the volumes include both traditional topics and cutting-edge approaches, such as archaeolinguistics and molecular genetics, and examine the essential questions of human development around the world. The volumes are organised geographically, exploring the evolution of hominins and their expansion from Africa, as well as the formation of states and development in each region of different technologies such as seafaring, metallurgy and food production. The Cambridge World Prehistory reveals a rich and complex history of the world. It will be an invaluable resource for any student or scholar of archaeology and related disciplines looking to research a particular topic, tradition, region or period within prehistory.

Download or read book Toward a Global Middle Ages written by Bryan C. Keene and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important and overdue book examines illuminated manuscripts and other book arts of the Global Middle Ages. Illuminated manuscripts and illustrated or decorated books—like today’s museums—preserve a rich array of information about how premodern peoples conceived of and perceived the world, its many cultures, and everyone’s place in it. Often a Eurocentric field of study, manuscripts are prisms through which we can glimpse the interconnected global history of humanity. Toward a Global Middle Ages is the first publication to examine decorated books produced across the globe during the period traditionally known as medieval. Through essays and case studies, the volume’s multidisciplinary contributors expand the historiography, chronology, and geography of manuscript studies to embrace a diversity of objects, individuals, narratives, and materials from Africa, Asia, Australasia, and the Americas—an approach that both engages with and contributes to the emerging field of scholarly inquiry known as the Global Middle Ages. Featuring more than 160 color illustrations, this wide-ranging and provocative collection is intended for all who are interested in engaging in a dialogue about how books and other textual objects contributed to world-making strategies from about 400 to 1600.
