Résumé

The Mesolithic in Britain proposes a new division of the Mesolithic period into four parts, each with its distinct character.

The Mesolithic in Britain Résumé

The Mesolithic in Britain: Landscape and Society in Times of Change Chantal Conneller (Newcastle University, UK)

  • This new synthesis draws on advances in scientific dating to understand the Mesolithic inhabitation of Britain as a historical process.
  • The book describes the lives of the first pioneers in the early Mesolithic; the emergence of new modes of inhabitation in the Middle Mesolithic; the regionally diverse settlement of the late Mesolithic; and the radical changes of the final millennium of the period.

The Mesolithic in Britain Avis

'Conneller's research provides a wonderful and comprehensive primer that brings the Mesolithic across Britain to life. Essential reading for anyone interested in the hunter-gather-fisher communities who settled in Britain after the last Ice Age, it deserves pride of place on any archaeological bookshelf.'

Caroline Wickham-Jones, University of Aberdeen, Scotland

'This is a remarkable and outstanding book. It will change the way we understand the British Mesolithic for generations to come.'

Professor Graeme Warren, University College Dublin, Dublin

It is difficult for me to overstate how important Conneller's book is for our understanding of the British Mesolithic, the British prehistoric sequence and the Mesolithic across Europe. It is instantly a key textbook for those wanting to gain an overall understanding of the character and complexity of British Mesolithic archaeology. It is also essential reading for anyone wanting to understand changes in Mesolithic societies in a particular region of Britain.

Ben Elliott, British Archaeology
