About this title

Synopsis

Projects supported by �8.8 million of funding from the British Government under the Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund (ALSF) administered by English Heritage (now Historic England) have completely transformed our understanding of the Palaeolithic and contributed to our understanding of Pleistocene environments in Britain. This is a period of multiple Ice Ages interspersed with warmer periods, which forms the backdrop for human evolution. The benefits to archaeology and for the interpretation of these fragile remains from this ancient epoch have been incalculable. This volume draws together the results of this research in a series of thematic chapters and illustrated text boxes focusing on key techniques, methodologies and case studies, providing a commentary for the non-specialist. Insights obtained from projects have helped to define future priorities and milestones for Palaeolithic research.

Review

This publication will be an important contribution to the field for students, specialists, and those interested in understanding the artefactual and palaeoenvironmental evidence and landscapes of this little-understood period within British prehistory. A must-buy book. * Current Archaeology * Worthy, and worth doing, but for a wider readership, not the last word * British Archaeology *
