The 'talking up' of the neolithic transition has probably more to do with political and funding agendas of academic research than with neolithisation itself. This perspective hypothesis allows us to understand the neolithic burst in creativity as a cultural advance in methods for knitting together thoughts. It can only be hoped that future finds at neolithic sites will provide new information to test the present interpretative study. From late neolithic times onwards, barrows were a remarkably persistent element in the structuring of the landscape. It is fair to suppose that the death of two individuals and an associated abandonment ritual were major occasions in a relatively small neolithic community. Perhaps some of the world's large hunter-gatherer families were the largest families in the times immediately preceding global neolithics. His research interests include neolithic archaeology, social archeology and the history of archaeology. The connecting link, in this neolithic culture as everywhere, is that she has irrevocably lost the precious bond to a beloved being. It is likely that neolithic revolutions across the globe reshuffled the rankings of language families with respect to their sizes. The medieval threefold structure of ager, saltus and silva - still more or less visible in the landscape up to modern times - may be a reminiscence of this neolithic tradition. Since the neolithic revolution, the presence of ancestors symbolically confirmed the domestication of the environment, often functioning as territorial markers and stressing the durability of man's dwelling in the landscape. The hypothesis of the function of neolithic megaliths as territorial markers has been tested with these tools as well, but we will return to this later. Today's quiet, leafy streets belie a heritage that dates back to neolithic times. From the Hansard archive Example from the Hansard archive.
