Description

Explore how ancient civilizations understood their history without written records. In The Past in Prehistoric Societies, Richard Bradley examines the vital research area of prehistory. This book investigates how oral traditions and the physical experience of encountering ancient material culture allowed people to form a sense of their own pasts. Through various case studies, the text covers a wide temporal and geographic range, extending from the Palaeolithic period to the early Middle Ages. The research spans from the Alps to Scandinavia, providing a broad perspective on prehistoric life. Readers will learn how archaeologists study the origins of myths and the different ways prehistoric societies maintained their connection to history. This work is an essential resource for those interested in archaeology and the social sciences.
