Archaeoethnologica: Early Neolithic in Northern Europe - Book / O Neolítico Inicial do Norte de Europa - Livro

In Britain, Ireland and southern Scandinavia, the Early Neolithic is characterised by monumental constructions (e.g. causewayed enclosures, dolmens) and by specific traditions of depositional practice. Some aspects of these practices are similar in both regions, for example the forms and use of monuments, their general sequences of development and the traditions of deposition (types of objects and their treatment, chosen sites and so on).

Despite these similarities, however, there has been little explicit comparative work, largely also because of research paradigms that have tended to emphasise local and regional peculiarities to the detriment of generalised similarities.

Na Grã-Bretanha, Irlanda e Escandinávia Meridional, o Neolítico Inicial é caracterizado por construções monumentais (por exemplo, cercados com calçadas, dólmens) e por tradições específicas de prática deposicional. Alguns aspectos dessas práticas são semelhantes em ambas as regiões, por exemplo, as formas e o uso de monumentos, suas sequências gerais de desenvolvimento e as tradições de deposição (tipos de objetos e seu tratamento, locais escolhidos e assim por diante).

Apesar dessas semelhanças, no entanto, houve pouco trabalho comparativo explícito, em grande parte também por causa de paradigmas de pesquisa que tendiam a enfatizar peculiaridades locais e regionais em detrimento de semelhanças generalizadas.

This is my first post in over a year. I don’t know what to say other than I feel like my muse has dried up. It’s sort of terrifying, for someone who has turned to writing my whole life. Or at least for as long as I can remember. 

I’ve been waiting, hoping, praying for motivation. And it just hasn’t come. So I decided to force it. Because I never feel motivated to go to the gym, and I go anyway. lol. Flexing my writing muscle! So excuse this if its more than a bit rusty.
