| Zusammenfassung: | What was life like in Scotland between 4000 and 2000BC? 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 dumps, human remains and broken potsherds left behind by our Neolithic forebears. Key features. Contributions from established and new academics Up-to-date assessments of ceramics and their context across the 3rd millennium BC in Scotland Re-evaluation of burial practices across the British Isles from a Scottish context First publication of key datasets - benchmarks for future research |

Edinburgh : Edinburgh University Press, [2016] ©2016 1 online resource (xvii, 322 pages) : illustrations, maps text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references and index. Print version record. What was life like in Scotland between 4000 and 2000BC? 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 dumps, human remains and broken potsherds left behind by our Neolithic forebears.
