{"product_id":"9781009096607","title":"Megasites in Prehistoric Europe : Where Strangers and Kinsfolk Met (Elements in the Archaeology of Europe)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is an Element about some of the largest sites known in prehistoric Europe - sites so vast that they often remain undiscussed for lack of the theoretical or methodological tools required for their understanding. Here, the authors use a relational, comparative approach to identify not only what made megasites but also what made megasites so special and so large. They have selected a sample of megasites in each major period of prehistory - Neolithic, Copper, Bronze and Iron Ages - with a detailed examination of a single representative megasite for each period. The relational approach makes explicit comparisons between smaller, more 'normal' sites and the megasites using six criteria - scale, temporality, deposition \/ monumentality, formal open spaces, performance and congregational catchment. The authors argue that many of the largest European prehistoric megasites were congregational places.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52289181188407,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":135.45,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/3548\/7543\/files\/9781009096607-1.jpg?v=1783135122","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.my\/products\/9781009096607","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Malaysia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
