Anthropomorphic figure pendants of the late Ceramic Age in the Greater Antilles

Figure pendants, ubiquitous in Caribbean collections, are small carvings of spirit beings perforated for suspension against the body. The data are drawn from new photographs, measurements, and observations of 535 specimens compiled by the author during 2011-2018 in research visits to 34 museums a...

Archaeology in the Žitava valley I
The LBK and Želiezovce settlement site of Vráble
2021 || Paperback || Martin Furholt e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
The early Neolithic site of Vráble (5250-4950 cal BCE) is among the largest LBK settlement agglomerations in Central Europe, and exceptional within the southwest Slovakian area. Geophysical surveys revealed more than 300 houses, grouped into three contemporary neighbourhoods, one of which is delineated by a complex ditched enclosure system. This enclosure is associated with a large number of human remains, which reveal new patterns of burial and deposition practices. This volume presents the...

Detecting and explaining technological innovation in prehistory
2020 || Paperback || Michela Spataro e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics
Technology refers to any set of standardised procedures for transforming raw materials into finished products. Innovation consists of any change in technology which has tangible and lasting effect on human practices, whether or not it provides utilitarian advantages. Prehistoric societies were never static, but the tempo of innovation occasionally increased to the point that we can refer to transformation taking place. Prehistorians must therefore identify factors promoting or hindering innov...

Forging Identities in the prehistory of Old Europe
Dividuals, individuals and communities, 7000–3000 BC
Paperback || John Chapman || Sidestone Press
Balkan prehistory conjures up images of the Exotic and the Other in comparison with the better-known prehistory of Western Europe - often written in unfamiliar languages about lesser known places. Combined with the information revolution in archaeology, these factors have meant that no new synthesis of Old Europe has been written in the last 20 years. This has left a backlog of rich settlement data and object-rich landscapes which have rarely been presented in theoretically challenging ways. ...

Persistent traditions
a long-term perspective on communities in the process of neolithisation in the lower rhine area (5500-2500 cal BC)
Hardcover || Luc Amkreutz || Sidestone Press Dissertations
The adoption of agriculture is one of the major developments in human history. Archaeological studies have demonstrated that the trajectories of Neolithisation in Northwest Europe were diverse. This book presents a study into the archaeology of the communities involved in the process of Neolithisation in the Lower Rhine Area (5500-2500 cal BC). It elucidates the role played by the indigenous communities in relation to their environmental context and in view of the changes that becoming Neolit...

Collecting Ancient Europe
National Museums and the search for European Antiquities in the 19th-early 20th century
Paperback || Luc Amkreutz || Sidestone Press
In order to understand our past, we need to understand ourselves as archaeologists and our discipline. This volume presents recent research into collecting practices of European Antiquities by national museums, institutes and individuals during the 19th and early 20th-century, and the ‘Ancient Europe’ collections that resulted and remain in many museums.
This was the period during which the archaeological discipline developed as a scientific field, and the study of the archaeological par...
