Ethnoarchaeology and hunter-gatherers pictures at an exhibition ; papers presented at a Prehistoric Society conference that was held at the University of Sheffield in February 1999

This volume is the result of the Prehistoric Society conference, held at the University of Sheffield in 1999, which concentrated on the ethnoarchaeology of hunter-gatherers and the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition. The 13 papers (representing sites from all over the world) are themed in terms of space, social change, and material culture, and reflect the conference's aim of presenting an 'exhibition' on the current state of ethnoarchaeology and the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition. The event was very much an open exhibition and the pictures - the papers presented here - are offered unabridged for the reader's enjoyment.
