This work is a meticulous and comprehensive survey of the pre-Neolithic archaeology of Italy. Most publications on the prehistory of Italy are written in Italian and are not readily available to the international archaeological community. This book however, is designed for an audience of English-speaking readers, and aims to synthesize more than 600,000 years of Italian prehistory - beginning with the Lower Paleolithic and ending with the last hunter-gatherers of the early Holocene. The text is presented with full reference to the original sources and within the context of ongoing debates in European and world prehistory. The author treats such issues as the development of social structure, the rise and fall of specific cultural traditions, climatic change, modifications of the landscape, fauna and flora, and environmental adaptation and exploitation and includes detailed descriptions of the most important sites.
