Stonehenge & Timber Circles
Praised by The Archaeologist as "a very readable and stimulating review," the author's ground-breaking study of 1998 is brought up-to-date in the light of the latest archaeological evidence. The author shows how Stonehenge can help us to understand the Neolithic and Bronze Age timber circles of Britain and Ireland, and how these timber circles aid our understanding of Stonehenge. He attempts their reconstruction, discusses their possible usages and functions, and describes how rituals may have changed through time. The relationship of timber circles with henges and stone circles is also explored.
Prehistoric Ritual and Religion
Written by distinguished scholars, the latest methods of research are applied to selected sites and monuments to suggest new ways of approaching this evocative, archaeological subject. Prehistoric astronomy, the Celtic ritual calendar and orientaion of stone age monuments in relation to lunar or solar observations are also considered.
