By Force of Arms
The day war was invented
2022 || Paperback || Anne Lehoërff || Sidestone Press
One day, sometime around 1700 BC, a bronzesmith made the first sword. This marked a technological turning point, giving rise to an arms race that has never since ceased. Soon, over a vast area between the Baltic Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, thousands of weapons were manufactured. They were used in combat, then laid to rest, whole or broken, often during complex rituals that are still hard for us to understand.
Through the sword, the Bronze Age brought war into being. The warrior became an impo...

Evolving Procedures for Heritage Protection in 15th- to 18th-Century Europe
2022 || Paperback || Chiara Mannoni || Sidestone Press
In the early modern centuries, several European states issued pioneering regulations to protect what they thought of as “heritage” – that is, antiquities, monuments, and paintings considered important for their country’s splendour. These early protocols have had a substantial impact on the development of legal and aesthetic approaches to heritage protection in recent times.
In this volume, legislation is explored from both a legal and art-historical perspective in order to understand ...

Armour, Chariots and Other Leather Remains from Tutankhamun’s Tomb
2022 || Hardcover || André Veldmeijer e.a. || Sidestone Press
One hundred years ago, Howard Carter, working for Lord Carnarvon, made one of the most important archaeological discoveries of all times in the Valley of the Kings (Luxor, Egypt): the nearly intact tomb of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun (ca. 1335-1325 BC). In addition to the king’s body, the tomb contained well over 5000 objects, which were recovered, conserved and recorded by Carter and his team. The fabulous treasures, such as the gold coffins, funerary mask, jewellery, as well as the ...

Nicolaus Westendorp (1773 – 1836)
Een dominee op zoek naar 't begin van 't Vaderlands Verleden
2022 || Paperback || 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 ...

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...

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...

2022 || Paperback || Maaike de Waal e.a. || Sidestone Press

Therefore, various interests, needs, and values affect these dynamics of interaction and urban change, which bring challenges and opportunities for the development of cities. Particularly, when urban development deals with such complex living environment and the management and conservation of both listed and non-listed...
