The Life and Journey of Neolithic Copper Objects
Transformations of the Neuenkirchen Hoard, North-East Germany (3800 BCE)
2022 || Hardcover || Henry Skorna || Sidestone Press Academics
This work is an intensive study of the Neolithic deposition of copper objects from Neuenkirchen in North-East Germany. This unique ensemble represents one of the very rare hoard finds from the early Early Neolithic, and is the first of its kind for nearly 100 years, matched only by the famous younger hoard find from Bygholm (Denmark).
The beginning of neolithization at the end of the fifth millennium is not only characterised by a change in the subsistence strategy, but also by the developmen...

Nicolaus Westendorp (1773 – 1836)
Een dominee op zoek naar 't begin van 't Vaderlands Verleden
2022 || Hardcover || Wout Arentzen || Sidestone Press
Nicolaus Westendorp (1773-1836) was een dominee in Nederlandse romantische traditie. Zo als veel van zijn collega’s begon hij zijn literaire leven als dichter. Hoewel het dominee zijn altijd zijn hoofd doel bleef werd hij landelijk bekend als oudheidkundige.
Als kind van de Nederlandse Romantiek stond hij met zijn voeten in het Verlichtingsdenken. Oudheidkunde was voor hem een praktische studie waarmee het net ontstane koninkrijk der Nederlanden een stevige basis kon krijgen. Het diende er ...

This book publishes open-access compositional data obtained from laser ablation – inductively coupled plasma – mass spectrometry, from a single analytical laboratory, providing a uniquely compa...

Millet and What Else?
The Wider Context of the Adoption of Millet Cultivation in Europe
2022 || Hardcover || Wiebke Kirleis e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
Broomcorn/common/proso millet (Panicum miliaceum) is a cereal crop that originated in East Asia and was transferred westward to Europe, where it was introduced in the mid-2nd millennium BCE, at the height of the Bronze Age. Archaeobotanists from the Collaborative Research Centre 1266, supported by many colleagues, conducted a large-scale programme of radiocarbon dating of millet grains from prehistoric Europe. They discovered that the spread of this crop on the continent happened quickly, ext...

Change and continuity at the Roman coastal fort at Oudenburg from the late 2nd until the early 5th century AD
Volume II: The material culture of the south-west corner site
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...

Flintknapping from the Lateglacial to the Early Holocene
The Belgian Scheldt valley sites of Ruien and Kerkhove
2024 || Hardcover || Hans Vandendriessche || Sidestone Press Dissertations
This book discusses the lithic technology of the neighboring sites of Ruien and Kerkhove (Belgium). The Final-Palaeolithic occupation of Ruien took place during the harsh climatic conditions of the Younger Dryas. The Early and Middle Mesolithic hunter-gatherers from Kerkhove on the other hand lived in the temperate and forested environments of the subsequent Early Holocene period. The aim of this work is more precisely to gain a better understanding of how the practice of flintknapping evolve...

Hidden under the Amstel
2022 || Hardcover || Willem van Zoetendaal e.a. || Harmonie, Uitgeverij De
The construction of a new metro line through the heart of Amsterdam in 2003-2018 – the North/South Line – gave us access to a unique archaeological site: the riverbed of the Amstel. Almost 700,000 archaeological finds were made there, all of which are linked with the history of Amsterdam between 1300 and 2000. In 2018, a photographic catalogue of 13,000 finds entitled Stuff was published, telling the visual story of the objects and materials that have been used in Amsterdam over the centu...
