Archaeology in the Žitava valley I

The LBK and Želiezovce settlement site of Vráble

2021 || Paperback || Martin Furholt e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics

The early Neolithic site of Vráble (5250-4950 cal BCE) is among the largest LBK settlement agglomerations in Central Europe, and exceptional within the southwest Slovakian area. Geophysical surveys revealed more than 300 houses, grouped into three contemporary neighbourhoods, one of which is delineated by a complex ditched enclosure system. This enclosure is associated with a large number of human remains, which reveal new patterns of burial and deposition practices. This volume presents the...

Empire and excavation

Critical perspectives on archaeology in British-period Cyprus, 1878–1960

2025 || Paperback || Thomas Kiely e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics

The modern discipline of archaeology developed in tandem with the expansion of European imperialism in the 19th and 20th centuries. Cyprus, ruled by Britain between 1878 and 1960, is a fascinating example of how archaeology was practiced and developed in a specific colonial context. This volume explores the mechanisms, the institutions and the characters who contributed to the development of Cypriot archaeology, often within a fraught political environment.

The 23 papers in this volume addre...

Detecting and explaining technological innovation in prehistory

2020 || Paperback || Michela Spataro e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics

Technology refers to any set of standardised procedures for transforming raw materials into finished products. Innovation consists of any change in technology which has tangible and lasting effect on human practices, whether or not it provides utilitarian advantages. Prehistoric societies were never static, but the tempo of innovation occasionally increased to the point that we can refer to transformation taking place. Prehistorians must therefore identify factors promoting or hindering innov...

Maidanets'ke

Development and decline of a Trypillia mega-site in Central Ukraine

2019 || Paperback || René Ohlrau || Sidestone Press Academics

At the end of the 5th millennium BCE, some of the vastest settlements of the time emerged on the forest steppe north of the Black Sea. The largest of these sites were found between the Southern Bug and Dnieper river. There they occur only tens of kilometres apart and are assumed to be partly coeval. The Trypillia 'mega-sites' reached sizes of up to 320 hectares with up to 3000 buildings in one place. During their peak times as many as 11.000 people could have lived in one of those settlements.

But how did people come together in these Trypillia 'mega-sites' with several thousand dwellings? How long were such sites inhabited, and how many people lived there? Were these settlements the first towns, preceding the Mesopotamian development? To address these questions, this book presents the results of the investigations at the Maidanets'ke 'mega-site'...

Vom Kollektiv zum Individuum

Transformationsprozesse am Übergang vom 4. zum 3. Jahrtausend v. Chr. in der Deutschen Mittelgebirgszone

2022 || Paperback || Clara Drummer || Sidestone Press Academics

Dieses Buch behandelt die Frage, ob und wie sich soziale Identitäten in der deutschen Mittelgebirgszone zum Ende des 3. Jahrtausends v. Chr. veränderten. Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass die Veränderungen der Bestattungssitten im Übergang vom Spät- zum Endneolithikum von Migrationsprozessen aus der nordpontischen Steppenlandschaft beeinflusst wurden.

Um die Frage der Auswirkungen dieser Migrationsprozesse auf den Wandel der sozialen Identitäten und Bestattungssitten zu beantworten, werde...

Burgäschisee 5000-3000 v. Chr.

Siedlungsdynamik und Mobilität, Landnutzung und Subsistenz

2022 || Paperback || Albert Hafner e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics

Seeufersiedlungen mit Feuchtbodenerhaltung sind für die Erforschung des Neolithikums des Alpenvorlandes von herausragender Bedeutung. Die ausserordentlich gute Erhaltung der Siedlungsschichten lässt weitgehende Einblicke in die Lebensweise der prähistorischen Menschen zu. Das Hinterland der grossen Seen ist im Gegensatz dazu weniger gut untersucht. Eine Schlüsselrolle bei dessen Erforschung nehmen die zahlreichen Kleinseen des Schweizerischen Mittellandes ein. Auch an deren Ufern finden s...

Insights into Social Inequality

A Quantitative Study of Neolithic to Early Medieval Societies in Southwest Germany

2020 || Paperback || Ralph Grossmann || Sidestone Press Academics

Social inequality is a subject of contemporary concerns. Life capabilities and the access to resources vary significantly in rich and poor countries, between elites and others. Furthermore, inequalities based on bio-anthropological and non-bio-anthropological causes are almost universal. Accordingly, inequality was also inherent in past societies and archaeologists have continually examined and interpreted social inequalities in sources such as burial grounds.

This book continues such analyse...
