Inhaltsangabe
Focusing on the North York Moors, this book presents a series of multidisciplinary studies of the carved prehistoric monuments in that area, some already known and some exposed by a devastating fire in 2003. This is the first major interpretive work about prehistoric rock motifs in this area. It includes new interpretations of the Brow Moor monument and cup-marked stones and studies the monuments in relation to the surrounding landscape while reevaluating astronomical and calendrical associations that have been assigned to markings on stones in the past.
