Archaeology has made exciting progress in Britain in the past forty years. Aerial photography, large-scale excavations, analytical techniques and new forms of dating have produced a wealth of fresh information and inspired radical interpretations. This book explores the ways in which archaeology since 1945 has widened our understanding of social history from the most remote ages through to post-medieval Britain. Numerous reconstruction drawings, specially commissioned for this book, highlight some of the most valuable results of modern archaeology. The British Museum is proud to publish this celebration of a national achievement in the greater understanding of the past. With 133 black-and-white illustrations and line drawings. With line illustrations by Simon James.
