THE MONUMENTAL CEMETERIES OF PREHISTORIC EUROPE - This book incorporates evidence from the French long barrow cemeteries into the framework of long barrow monumental architecture across north-western Europe. Importantly it provide an overview of the cultural and social background of the preceding period, setting the scene for unravelling the dynamic burial traditions of both the late hunter-gatherers and the early farmers over the period. The visual and cultural impact is examined in an attempt to reappraise some of the major issues revolving around the significance of monumental cemeteries.
