Abstract

A Turkish farmer finds a large obsidian mirror on top of a mound. How did it get there? What did it mean for its creator, and what does it mean for us? In this teaching novel by writer Rob Swigart, the story toggles back and forth between a Neolithic village-and the changing fortunes of the family who finds this wondrous tool-and modern archaeologists whose excavated treasure stirs journalists, governments, and goddess worshippers alike. Through an engrossing tale across millennia, Swigart's novel provides both a basic reconstruction of Neolithic lifeways and a primer on contemporary arch

Abstract

Qui dit " Néolithique " pense en général " révolution " : comment qualifier autrement une période durant laquelle l'homme s'est engagé, pour le meilleur et le pire, dans les logiques de la production ? A l'échelle des temps, nous sommes d'assez proches héritiers des premiers éleveurs et agriculteurs... Mais cette révolution prit son temps, et son cours, ses tours et ses détours sont infiniment complexes. En Europe, le processus, qui débute au VIIe millénaire avant notre ère, ne prend sa pleine mesure que plusieurs millénaires plus tard. Les auteurs de ce livre montrent comment apparurent, prirent corps, se combinèrent, avec quelles conséquences directes ou lointaines, toute une série de phénomènes majeurs : sédentarisation systématique des communautés, transformations socioreligieuses, avec notamment une nouvelle approche du rapport aux morts, établissement de réseaux commerciaux structurés, invention de la roue et de l'attelage, in fine développement de la première métallurgie, événement qui marque assez arbitrairement la fin de cette page d'histoire. Le spécialiste appréciera l'étendue, la finesse, la qualité et le caractère inédit de cette synthèse - la première en langue française depuis plus de vingt ans -, et trouvera matière à faire évoluer son regard sur une période dont il pouvait croire " tout " connaître ; l'homme cultivé entrera avec curiosité, puis passion dans la lecture de ce chapitre d'ouverture du grand roman de l'humanité " moderne ".

Abstract

This edited volume provides a full report on the Pre-Pottery Neolithic A site of WF16, southern Jordan. Very few sites of PPNA date have been excavated using modern methods, so this report makes a very significant contribution to our understanding of this period. Excavations have shown that the site contains a highly dynamic use of architecture, and the faunal assemblage reveals new information on the processes that lead to the domestication of the goat.

Abstract

This book is a cohesive overview of Central European prehistory from the introduction of agriculture around 6000 BC to the state-forming processes that began to emerge during the first millennium BC. A complex mosaic of culture, society and processes is mirrored in the material world and in certain periods involves a large part of the Eurasian continent. Culture and change must be understood as both localised and macro-regional: the book is a cultural-historical tale - inspired by, for example, the attempts of French historians to integrate different levels of history. Emphasis is laid on the

Abstract

This volume is based upon a conference which took place in 1999, reflecting the developing interest in intertidal archaeology and concentrating on the Neolithic period, as well as elements of associated Mesolithic and Bronze Age archaeology. Since then, the papers have been revised to include new discoveries and reflect the increasing interest and importance attached to the intertidal zone. All papers have supporting environmental data and radiocarbon dates. The volume has a wide geographical spread and details the work of archaeologists working in fragile and rapidly eroding environments is e
