Landscapes of Neolithic Ireland

<p><em>Landscapes of Neolithic Ireland</em> is the first volume to be devoted solely to the Irish Neolithic using an innovative landscape and anthropological perspective to provide significant new insights on the period.<br> Gabriel Cooney argues that the archaeological evidence demonstrates a much more complex picture than the current orthodoxy on Neolithic Europe with its assumption of mobile lifestyles suggests. He integrates the study of landscape settlement agriculture material culture and burial practice to offer a rounded realistic picture of the complexities and the realities of Neolithic lives and societies in Ireland.</p>
