Irish Prehistory: A Social Perspective presents an interpretation of Irish prehistory using an integrated approach to the archaeological record and viewing it as the result of human action. In writing and illustrating the book care has been taken to make it accessible and attractive to a wide readership. It takes as a basic premise that all the archaeological residues of activity from the past, from pot sherds to burial practices, in some way reflect the people and society that produced them and that we can gain insights from material culture into the character of Irish society during the prehistoric period in order to interpret the major causes of social change. Particular attention is paid to discussion of the links between different kinds of archaeological data that are often treated as unrelated, analysis of the major social transitions that occurred, and the understanding of both the long-term continuities and the dramatic changes that were a feature of Irish society over the course of prehistory.
