Title & Content

Title:
Political Matters in Prehistory: Papers in Honor of Antonio Gilman Guillén
Content:
Throughout his career Antonio Gilman has been mainly concerned with the role of land, capital and wealth in the emergence of social inequality in prehistoric Europe. He has used his Marxist perspective, always analytical, critical and witty, to confront a prodigious range of topics –the Neolithic of the Maghreb; the relationships between North Africa and the western Mediterranean during the 3rd millennium BC; the Bronze Age of southeast Iberia and La Mancha or the radiocarbon chronology of the Iberian Peninsula. The papers in this session explore the impact of his work and thought in European archaeology.
