Download or read book The Stone of Life written by David Peacock and published by Southampton Monographs in Arch. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the archaeology querns and mills, simple stone instruments which are vital to survival in a society which adopts bread as its staple. They become the 'stones of life', an essential ingredient in the subsistence strategy of settled agriculturalists. It might be expected that as querns and mills are commonplace in archaeology, they would be key artefacts, studied exhaustively. Alas, this is far from the case. They have been woefully neglected, although in the last decade there has been burgeoning interest throughout much of Europe and because of this, it is timely to survey the subject, adopting a broad viewpoint. A study on this scale has not been attempted since the late nineteenth century when Bennett and Elton published their magisterial work on the History of corn milling. The author is Emeritus Professor of Archaeology at the University of Southampton and a Fellow of the Societies of Antiquaries. He was awarded the Kenyon Medal of the British Academy in 2011 and the Pommerance Medal of the Archaeological Institute of America in 2012. He has had a lifelong interest in querns and mills on which he has published widely. His work includes the discovery of key mill quarries in the Mediterranean - Orvieto in Umbria and Mulargia in Sardinia, while in Britain the Lodsworth quarries remain the only ones to be found by a deliberate search strategy. The reader will be grateful to Chris Green, also a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, for the clear and elegant illustrations which enhance the book and elucidate the text.

Nearby lives Lizzie Raynor a feisty and brilliant artist who at one stroke lost her father, home and lover and is now forced to be one of Jardine’s tenants. Neither she nor the neighbourhood takes kindly to Ramillies new and exotic occupants. ‘This has been an unlucky house since my father died,’ she said quietly to herself, ‘or before that, since … since he killed the peacock.

But now this: perhaps the house is cursed after all.’ ‘A delightful book’ The Times ‘A delightful novel, full of humour and poignancy and rich in period detail’ Douglas Reeman, Novelist Winner Boots Romantic Novel of the Year Award
