Samenvatting

Originally published in 1950, this book provides a general survey of what was known about prehistoric chamber tombs in England and Wales at the time of publication, reflecting on discoveries made through the excavation of numerous tombs in the previous fifty years. The text also contains a variety of illustrative figures and an inventory of recognisable burial chambers in the area, with notes on doubtful, disputed and certain vanished sites. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in megalithic tombs and the development of archaeology.
