- This book (258 pages, 113 illustrations) is based on 20 years of exhaustive research into these sites, the dataset drawing on a wide range of sources including cropmarks, excavation results, and the author's own fieldwork. It offers a granular assessment of a group of 50 early Neolithic monuments by applying a unique combination of cropmark analysis, phenomenological fieldwork and excavation results. The scale and complexity of this research are heightened by its elaborate theoretical framework and by its comparative and contextual approach, examining similar monuments across Britain, Ireland and central Europe.
