Book Description
This book undertakes a thorough study of Reindeer in the Upper Pleniglacial and Tardiglacial societies in France. It addresses two main topics – the economy of animal resources within the societies and the exploitation of Reindeer organized within the annual cycle, in terms of space and time, between 30,000 and 14,000 cal BP in France. The author proposes an analysis and hypothesis regarding the economy of animal resources and the nomadic cycle of the last Paleolithic hunter-gatherer societies, in order to identify a “Reindeer system.” The author discusses the relationship between Reindeer and human mobility and offers some conclusions regarding the annual cycles of nomadism. The volume scrutinizes the distinct eco systems in three regions and its effects on the movements of both human and animal. This book is of interest to zooarchaeologists and prehistorians.

Book Description
This volume presents the proceedings of the Workshop of the UISPP Commission XXXII held at Greifswald in 2002 which focused on man's reaction to the dramatic climatic, and subsequent environmental, change that marked the end of the Pleistocene and the beginning of the warmer Holocene. Focusing on northern and central Europe, contributors discuss the types of changes that took place in vegetation, fauna and landscape across this region before looking at specific case studies. These examine, for example, the problems of dating environmental deposits or bone artefacts. Sites discussed include Lundby and Bornholm in Denmark, Norregard, the Polish plain, Kreis Schleswig-Flensburg in Germany, the Havelland, northern Germany and Italy. A final study examines evidence from this transitional period further afield on the Japanese islands. All papers are in English.

Book Description
Over time at least four meanings have been attributed to the term 'Baltic' - drawing on thirty years of extensive research, Foreword to the Past is the first modern introduction to the enigma of the Baltic origins and the self-identification of the Baltic people. The book is divided into three distinctive parts: the first part recounts the history of the Baltic peoples relying on archaeological sources; the second part provides an objective linguistic history and a description of the Baltic languages; the third part provides an original and fresh insight into mythology in the ancient history of the Baltic peoples.
