Book Description
The story begins with Boxgrove Man, the earliest human yet recovered in Britain, and ends with the first named resident of Sussex, one Tiberius Claudius Togidubnus, Great King of the Britons and friend of the emperor Claudius. Dr. Russell examines the wealth of archaeological remains and discoveries from the 500,000 years that separate these two prehistoric people: remains that include the earliest forms of neolithic monument, such as Whitehawk Causewayed Enclosure and the flint mines of Cissbury, and the impressive Iron Age hillforts of Hollingbury in Brighton and Mount Caburn near Lewes.

Book Description
This study, first published in 1978, explores the evidence for pre-Roman settlement in Britain. Four aspects of the prehistoric economy are described by the author – colonisation and clearance; arable and pastoral farming; transhumance and nomadism; and hunting, gathering and fishing. These aspects have been brought together to formulate a structure which contains the evidence more naturally than chronological schemes that depend on assumed changes in population or technology. The book draws upon environmental evidence and recent developments in archaeological fieldwork. It also provides an extensive exploration of the published literature on the subject and the scope of the evidence. Originally conceived as an ‘ideas book’ rather than a final synthesis, the author’s intention throughout is to stimulate argument and research, and not to replace one dogma with another.

Book Description
First published in 1999. This groundbreaking volume addresses issues central to the study of prehistoric settlement including group memory, the transmission of ideology and the impact of mobility and seasonality on the construction of social identity. Building on these themes, the contributors point to new ways of understanding the relationship between settlement and landscape by replacing Capitalist models of spatial relations with more intimate histories of place.

Pottery has become one of the major categories of artefact that is used in reconstructing the lives and habits of prehistoric people. In these 14 papers, members of the Prehistoric Ceramics Research Group discuss the many ways in which pottery is used to study chronology, behavioural changes, inter-relationships between people and between people and their environment, technology and production, exchange, settlement organisation, cultural expression, style and symbolism.
