Description
Stemming from the author's doctoral research, this volume assesses the environmental evidence for changes in the subsistence base of prehistoric communities in Britain, from the 5th to the 1st millennium BC. With much regional comparative analysis, Andrew Richmond re-evaluates the concept of the Neolithic as defined by the adoption of agriculture, arguing that it may not have become the mainstay of the economy until an advanced stage of the Neolithic.
