<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Bronze Age Textiles uses amazingly preserved garments and textiles, along with other artifacts to examine Bronze age society across Europe.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In the ancient civilizations of the Eastern<br/>Mediterranean, textiles were generally much more costly than foodstuffs, <br/>animals or bronzes; it is very likely that the same was the case throughout<br/>prehistoric Europe. In this study, the first<br/>for over seventy years, Klavs Randsborg examines completely preserved woollen<br/>dresses, both female and male, from Danish oak coffin graves of the early<br/>second millennium BC. These garments, matched in age and superb preservation<br/>only by finds from Ancient Egypt, along with related artefacts such as images<br/>and figurines, are used to build up a rich picture of Bronze Age society and<br/>culture in the context of archaeological, ethnographical and historical<br/>information from Europe and beyond<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Klavs Randsborg is Professor of World Archaeology, University of Copenhagen.</p>
