Doggerland
Lost World under the North Sea
2022 || Paperback || Luc Amkreutz e.a. || Sidestone Press
This popular-science book tells the story of one of the most important, but least known major archaeological sites in Europe: Doggerland. Few people know that the beaches along the North Sea lie on the edge of a vast lost world. A prehistoric landscape that documents almost a million years of human habitation and lay dry for most of that time.
Doggerland is where early hominids left the first footprints in northern Europe, more than 900,000 years ago. Later, for hundreds of thousands of year...

Towards the Borders of the Bronze Age and Beyond
Mycenaean Long Distance Travel and its Reflection in Myth
2022 || Paperback || Jörg Mull || Sidestone Press
The Late Bronze Age from about 1600 to 1150 BCE was a time of unprecedented economic activity in human history based on the supply and production of the eponymous alloy bronze on an almost industrial scale. The supply networks for copper and tin during this period stretched over large parts of western Eurasia and included long distance maritime transport.
The palatial centres of Mycenaean Greece were positioned at a unique geographical interface between the cultural hotspots of the eastern Me...

Shaping Cultural Landscapes
Connecting Agriculture, Crafts, Construction, Transport, and Resilience Strategies
2022 || Paperback || Ann Brysbaert e.a. || Sidestone Press
Any activity requires the expenditure of energy, and the larger the scale of the undertakings, the more careful and strategic planning in advance is required. In focusing on labouring by humans and other animals, the papers in this volume investigate through a wide range of contexts how past people achieved their multiple daily tasks while remaining resilient in anticipation of adverse events and periods.
Each paper investigates the resource requirements of combined activities, from conducti...

Competing principalities?
2022 || Paperback || Corien Wiersma e.a. || Sidestone Press

Among discussed settlements are the sites of Pellana, Palaiopyrgi, Geraki, Pavlopetri and Vrysika and also the island Kythera. The newly discovered palatial site at Ayios Vasileios is also elaborately discussed in various papers, includin...

Echoes from the Deep
Inventorising shipwrecks at the national scale by the application of marine geophysics and the historical text
2022 || Paperback || Innes McCartney || Sidestone Press
In a process analogous with the impact of aerial photography on landscape archaeology, marine geophysics is locating the remains of thousands of shipwrecks across the seabed of the globe. This research project set out to establish whether all of the shipwrecks in a given geographic region could be identified by name through the mutual study of the 3D models of the shipwrecks, alongside the historic text of shipping losses in the same area.
All of the 273 shipwrecks in a 7,500sqm study area in...

Aspects of Mesolithic hunter-gatherer landscape use and non-lithic technology
2022 || Paperback || Ole Grøn e.a. || Sidestone Press
The modelling and representation of prehistoric hunter-gatherer behaviours is largely influenced by the investigation of sites with high archaeological visibility, due to the presence of large amounts of knapped lithics, which generally survive the ravages of time. As a consequence, behaviours which were not, or to a limited extent, associated with stone tools are underrepresented in archaeological narratives about hunter-gatherer lifestyles, which, however, have characterised most of the hum...

Change and continuity at the Roman coastal fort at Oudenburg from the late 2nd until the early 5th century AD
Volume III: Plates
2022 || Hardcover || Sofie Vanhoutte || Sidestone Press
In the later Roman period the North Sea and Channel region was the scene of seaborne attacks, political crises, army reforms, Germanic invasions and changing imperial defence strategies. Literary evidence for this era is poor. On the other hand the Shore forts can yield highly significant information, but have been subject to little study in recent decades. At the Belgian coastal fort at Oudenburg large-scale excavations in the first decade of the 21st century revealed a strikingly well-prese...

City Gates in the Roman West
Forms and functions
2022 || Hardcover || Cornelis van Tilburg || Sidestone Press
This book discusses various aspects of city gates in the Western Roman Empire: Italy, Spain, Gaul, Germany and Britain. In these countries many Roman city gates are to be found, sometimes still in a good condition, like the Porta Nigra in Trier and the Porta Appia in Rome.
Similarly to medieval or early-modern city gates, Roman city gates did not all have the same design but show an evolution over time and depending on the circumstances: sometimes they appear as simple, narrow passages (which...
