Item description from seller

Causewayed Enclosures (1990) by R.J. Mercer ? Shire Archaeology Series Available now from Crappy Old Books: where forgotten pages find questionable value. Delve into the curious world of Neolithic Britain with Causewayed Enclosures , R.J. Mercer?s compact yet scholarly contribution to the Shire Archaeology series. First published in 1990 and boasting all the gritty charm of pre-digital archaeology, this slim volume explores one of prehistoric Europe?s most enigmatic monument types ? the interrupted ditches of early farming communities. Expect meticulous diagrams, just enough grainy black-and-white site photos to keep things interesting, and a tone that balances academic rigour with the warmth of a very patient lecturer. Mercer guides readers through theories of enclosure use ? from seasonal gathering places to cattle pens or cult centres ? all without once using the word "ritual" gratuitously (well, almost). Perfect for the amateur archaeologist, the desk-bound academic, or anyone who enjoys the smell of 1990s paper and a bit of Neolithic mystery. Slight foxing, a musty whiff, and possibly a coffee ring included at no extra charge ? because at Crappy Old Books , we believe history should feel historic. THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE.…
