LIVING ON THE LAKE IN
PREHISTORIC EUROPE
The chance discovery in 1854 of a prehistoric lake village on Lake Zurich
triggered what we now call the ‘lake-dwelling phenomenon’. One hundred and
fifty years of research and animated academic disputes have transformed the
phenomenon into one of the most reliable sources of information in wetland
archaeology.
This definitive volume provides an overview of the development of lake
village studies, explores the impact of a range of scientific techniques on the
settlements and considers how the public can relate to this evocative and exciting
branch of archaeology. It explains how the multidisciplinary research context has
significantly improved our knowledge of prehistoric wetland communities, from
an environmental as well as a cultural perspective.
Living on the Lake in Prehistoric Europe
brings together the most prominent
scholars in the field to create an authoritative survey of the past, present and
future of lake village studies.
