Skara Brae is a stone-built Neolithic settlement located along the Bay of Skaill on the west coast of Mainland, Orkney. The site was discovered following a storm exposing the presence of stone structures within the coastal sand dunes. Childe, who would be the first to admit he was better at writing than digging, which he loathed, excavated carefully, acknowledging the work of every digger involved in the process of carefully examining and cataloguing the site. Brown cloth boards, gilt title to spine. B/w illustrations and photos. xiii and 208 pages plus plates to rear. Top edge brown. Spine lightly faded to top & tail, a few minor marks to boards. Text block slightly grubby. Foxing present, mainly to text block and prelims. A lovely copy overall.
