Description

Challenge long-held archaeological assumptions with Rethinking Neolithic Societies. This volume from the Open Series in Prehistoric Archaeology examines how traditional ideas about Neolithic life may have been built on questionable premises. For years, the study of these ancient periods relied on concepts of static, homogeneous social entities with fixed borders and ethnic interpretations of archaeological cultures. This book provides a fresh look at the social and cultural coherence of residence groups. It moves away from the idea that farming automatically meant permanent sedentariness, instead looking at spatial mobility and the importance of cross-regional social networks. By questioning (neo-)evolutionist thinking that assumes universal increases in social complexity and hierarchisation, this work offers new perspectives on social relations, political organization, and cohabitation during the Neolithic period.
