{"product_id":"9781842174685","title":"Regional Perspectives on Neolithic Pit Deposition: Beyond the Mundane","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe rise to prominence of pits within narratives of the British and Irish Neolithic is well-documented in recent literature. Pits have been cropping up in excavations for centuries, resulting in a very broad spectrum of interpretations but three main factors have led to the recent change in our perception and representation of these features: a broad shift in people's expectations as to what a Neolithic settlement should be; the development of the concept of 'structured deposition', within which pits have played a key role; and a dramatic rise in the number of pits actually known about. Development-led archaeology, and the often very large areas its excavations expose, has simply revealed many, more pits. The 15 papers in this volume explore these inter-related factors and present new thoughts and interprations arising from new analysis of Neolithic pits and their contents.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxbow Books Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47062029107440,"sku":"9781842174685","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781842174685_p0.jpg?v=1763742789","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781842174685","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
