Description

Countless reminders of prehistoric life still survive in the wide landscapes of Europe, but none are arguably as fascinating or awe-inspiring as the huge stone monuments built by its Neolithic and Bronze Age European societies. These ‘megalithic’ (after the Greek megas: great, and lithos: stone) structures can still be found scattered in their thousands across Europe, taking many different forms, but all providing a tentative and mysterious link to its distant past. From the Mediterranean to the colder climes of Scandinavia, this book takes readers on a journey through Europe, examining its diverse range of megalithic monuments, also looking at what insights these remarkable structures may provide into the ancient communities who were responsible for their construction.
