In a series of contributions that have included wide-ranging syntheses and detailed local studies, he discusses their implications for the understanding of settlement-patterns, social structures, material culture, and less tangible aspects of prehistoric life such as the spread of languages and the use of narcotics UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781474472562 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781474472562 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781474472562/original ER -
