Zusammenfassung

A photographic record of our ancestors' obsession with stone. From the sun-drenched temples of Malta and the great tombs and alignments of Brittany to the labyrinths of icy Finland, this book explores these stones in their landscape, as part of nature and as a reminder that, thousands of years on, they hold a certain magic and mystery.

Jan Pohribny is a photographer-artist who also works in the fields of design and illustration photography. He teaches at the Institute of Creative Photography at the Silesian University in Opava, Czech Republic. Julian Richards is an archaeologist, writer and broadcaster with a great interest in Stonehenge and associated sites throughout Europe.
