Abstract

A major survey of the prehistoric hunter-gatherer societies of Europe, this book reviews the topical information and interpretations for scientific research. Palaeolithic studies are at an exciting point of transition. The explosion in ethno-archaeological studies has fundamentally challenged our models and interpretations amongst all classes of data and at all spatial scales of analysis. Furthermore the traditional concerns of dating and quaternary studies have also passed through their own revolutions and palaeolithic archaeology is the direct beneficiary. Dr Gamble presents in an imaginative but comprehensive framework our changing perspectives of Europe's oldest societies.

Abstract

L'âge du Bronze s'épanouit en Europe de 2500 à 800 av. J.-C. Si ses sépultures, ses objets et ses habitats sont bien connus, sa pensée religieuse restait ignorée. Jacques Briard comble cette lacune en déchiffrant les gravures rupestres, en interprétant les stèles de déesses ou de guerriers, en analysant les premier pictogrammes des poteries funéraires ou les significations des chars culturels solaires de l'Europe "barbare". Toute la richesse symbolique du monde préceltique est ainsi entrevue avec les cultes du feu, du soleil, du cheval, de l'oiseau qui viennent enrichir l'héritage culturel néolithique des déesses mères et des célébrations agricoles. C'est un apport capital dans la genèse spirituelle de l'Europe celtique.

Abstract

The shift from Lower to Middle Palaeolithic in northwestern Europe (dated to around 300,000-250,000 years ago) remains poorly understood and underexplored compared to more recent archaeological transitions. During this period, stone tool technologies underwent significant changes but the limited number of known sites and the general low spatio-temporal resolution of the archaeological record in many cases has impeded detailed behavioural inferences. Brickyard-quarrying activities at Kesselt-Op de Schans (Limburg, Belgium) led to the discovery and excavation of a well-preserved early Middle Palaeolithic level buried beneath a 10m thick loess-palaeosol sequence. The present volume offers a comprehensive report on the site, dated to around 280,000 years ago, set against a wider northwestern European context. An in-depth study of the lithic assemblage, including an extensive refitting analysis, provides detailed information on the technological behaviour of prehistoric hominins in the Meuse basin during this crucial time period.
