Produktinformationen zu „Lost World of Old Europe “
In the prehistoric Copper Age, long before cities, writing, or the invention of the wheel, Old Europe was among the most culturally rich regions in the world. Its inhabitants lived in prosperous agricultural towns. The ubiquitous goddess figurines found in their houses and shrines have triggered intense debates about women's roles. The Lost World of Old Europe is the accompanying catalog for an exhibition at New York University's Institute for the Study of the Ancient World. This superb volume features essays by leading archaeologists as well as breathtaking color photographs cataloguing the objects, some illustrated here for the first time.

Rezension zu „Lost World of Old Europe “
Excellently produced catalogue. It is, however, much more than a catalogue... These splendid images are the highlight of a timely and well-informed review of one of the most notable and creative episodes in world prehistory. -- Colin Renfrew, Times Literary Supplement
