Description

This volume builds upon the model of the first Stone Axe Studies volume published in 1979.

It explores how scholars from various parts of the world currently approach these distinctive items.

Some papers are united by specific material, such as those working on Jadeite axe blades in western and Central Europe.

For others, the link is analytical (e.g., the development of new geochemical techniques), contextual (e.g., work on techniques of hafting or on patterns of deposition) or conceptual (e.g., the uses made of ethno-historic and related models).

Taken together, they document the state of the art in stone axe research in Britain and abroad, at the same time providing a much needed basis for comparative study and for debate regarding analytical and interpretative issues.
