Ancient Farming by Peter J Reynolds

From hunter-gatherer societies in the Neolithic period to the full 'agroscape' of the late Iron Age, a compact history of the evolution of agriculture. Featuring up-to-date results of experimental research at the Butser Ancient Farm Research Project in Hampshire, of which the author was the director, this is a compact yet authoritative guide to ancient farming that enhances theory with practical probability.
Peter J. Reynolds graduated in classics from Trinity College, Dublin. From 1969-72 he was responsible for setting up a research project in iron age studies at the Avoncroft Museum of Buildings in Bromsgrove. In 1972 he was invited to become the Director of the Butser Ancient Farm Research Project. He gained a PhD from Leicester University in 1978 for his work on the underground storage of grain. He is the author of several books and numerous specialist papers on prehistoric agriculture.
