Stonehenge
The Biography of Landscape Archaeology
Timothy Darvill
Tempus 2007  320 pages
Paperback  Illustrated  0752443429 
Qty
Published Price £19.99 Our Price £7.99
Taking 'a more holistic view of the landscape' than most studies, Timothy Darvill's book looks at Stonehenge within the context of the surrounding area - a landscape that contains one of the most dense concentrations of prehistoric remains in the world. The study covers the human occupation of that landscape from before the construction of Stonehenge (pre-4000 BCE), studying the archaeology of its prehistoric sites, and following its history up to the Neo-Druids and conservation debates of the 20th century.
