Summary

The first publication of the Neolithic Studies Group, looking at the structure and social meaning of Neolithic houses, is available again as a digital reprint. The majority of these papers were presented in 1992 at a special seminar entitled "Neolithic Houses: Fact or Fiction?" The contributions include regional reviews of the archaeological evidence for Neolithic houses in different parts of north-west Europe, discussions of a selection of specific houses in various parts of Europe, general interpretive reviews, and two papers which present comparative anthropological data on the use of houses in farming communities in Bali and the Amazon.
