About this product

Product Information

The only complete, illustrated, visitor guide to the Avebury area Set in the rolling hills of Wiltshire is the great henge of Avebury. It is enormous: its stone circle, a quarter of a mile across, is the largest in the world. Encompassing a village and pub, it is just one of a vast complex of monuments spread across this sacred landscape. Beautifully illustrated with more than 250 photographs, maps and diagrams, 'Exploring Avebury' brings to life these prehistoric monuments, along with the landscape and waterscape of the Avebury area. Through this lens, we see for the first time the vital importance of water, light and sound to those who built these amazing prehistoric structures. AUTHOR: Steve Marshall has lived for more than twenty years near Avebury and Stonehenge. Archaeology occupies most of his time: he is a member of several archaeological research groups and frequently give illustrated talks on Avebury. He has had scores of articles, illustrated with his own photographs, published on a wide range of subjects for publications such as 'Wiltshire Life and British Archaeology'. SELLING POINTS: . Covers the whole of the Avebury landscape and its monuments, not just the most well- known ones . Encourages the reader to explore the wider Avebury landscape with easy to follow maps and descriptions . Exciting discoveries based on the author's fieldwork, presented in accessible language . Fills a gap in the market for a complete visitor guide 400 colour illustrations
