Ancestors: A Prehistory of Britain in Seven Burials

byAlice Roberts

Focused on a Prehistory of Britain in Seven Burials, Ancestors brings Alice Roberts's historical account to a complex and consequential subject. By tracing causes alongside consequences, the narrative gives readers both a grounded account and a route into the connected fields of history and social science. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. Together, these elements make Ancestors an accessible guide to the subject and the questions it continues to raise.
