A Prehistory of Sardinia 2300-500BC

Gary S. Webster

4.9/5 (22403 ratings)

Description:An archaeologically-based study of Sardinia in English has been lacking for over a decade, and this study fills that gap. New evidence and the powerful processualist tools for analysing island societies developed in the eastern Mediterranean by Cherry, Renfrew and Knapp are incorporated. Also the real architectural and technological differences classified as Nuragic I to IV are revaluated and their social significance assessed. While the island can be seen as a social laboratory' on which one can study endogenous change, the effect of Phoenician influence in the later period and of trading links earlier on are well considered by the author and make the book, if not the subject, more than academically insular. Chapter 1: Introduction: The Development of a Nuragic Prehistory; Chapter 2: The Island Setting; Chapter 3: Pre-Nuragic Sardinia; Chapter 4: Nuragic I: Collapse and New Beginnings in the EBA, 2300-1800 BC; Chapter 5: Nuragic II: Stability Through Dispersion in the MBA, 1800-1300 BC; Chapter 6: Nuragic III: Competition and Hierarchy in the LBA, 1300-900 BC; Chapter 7: Nuragic IV: Stratification during the Iron Age, 900-500 BC; Chapter 8: Conclusion; Appendix: The Evidence of the Votive Figurines.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
