Overview

The first edition of Iron Age Communities in Britain fast became a classic text on the period. Now in its third edition, this superior work has been substantially revised to incorporate a wealth of information now available in the field of prehistoric studies. Chapters

on food production strategies and warfare have been added, while others have been modified and supplemented to reflect the field's changing emphasis. Richly illustrated with new maps and photographs, this work is invaluable for scholars of Iron Age archaeology.

Cunliffe's (archaeology, U. of Oxford) survey, first published in 1971 and revised in 1976, is a monumental, standard source, which required another revision because of the mass of new evidence (more than 700 new papers and books have been published in a decade) and the radical change in emphasis that has occurred in prehistoric studies. The text has been completely revised, new sections have been introduced, and all illustrations have been redrawn. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
