The Neolithic Cultures of the British Isles : A Study of the Stone-using Agricultural Communities of Britain in the Second Millenium BC

Omtale

After an outline of the continental background of the British neolithic cultures the book contains two subdivisions. Professor Piggott first describes those cultures that he classes as primary: that is those bought to Britain by colonists who bought a knowledge of agriculture. He then shows how there arose derivative secondary neolithic cultures showing a resurgence of earlier characteristics.
