Where were people living? How did they treat their dead? Why did they spend so much time building extravagant ritual monuments? What was special about the relationship people had with trees and why was so much time and effort spent digging holes and filling them back up again? This collection examines what we can say about how people lived in the Neolithic and early Bronze Age of mainland Scotland where much of the evidence we have lies in the plough-zone, or survives as slumped banks and filled ditches, or simply appears as ruinous megaliths. It draws together leading experts and young researchers to present fresh research and outlines radical new interpretations of the pits, postholes, ditches, rubbish dumps, human remains and broken potsherds left behind by our Neolithic forebears. Much of this evidence has come to light as a result of rescue or developer-led fieldwork in the past few decades, putting the emphasis very much on lowland, mainland Scotland as opposed to high-profile Orcadian Neolithic sites. 001410596 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001410596 650_0 $$aNeolithic period$$zScotland. 001410596 650_0 $$aPrehistoric peoples$$zScotland. 001410596 651_0 $$aScotland$$xAntiquities. 001410596 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001410596 7001_ $$aBrophy, Kenneth,$$eeditor. 001410596 7001_ $$aRalston, Ian,$$eeditor. 001410596 7001_ $$aMacGregor, Gavin,$$d1969-$$eeditor. 001410596 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tNeolithic of mainland Scotland.$$dEdinburgh : Edinburgh University Press, [2016]$$z9780748685721 001410596 852__ $$bebk 001410596 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4737225$$zOnline Access 001410596 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1410596$$pGLOBAL_SET 001410596 980__ $$aBIB 001410596 980__ $$aEBOOK 001410596 982__ $$aEbook 001410596 983__ $$aOnline
