More about the book
Avebury and Stonehenge, the two most important prehistoric temples in Britain, are sited quite close together, about 28km apart. Why should this be? Although it may not be immediately apparent, they occupy a central position as far as ancient tracks are concerned. Many ridgeways converge on Salisbury Plain, following dry ridges free of natural dense woodland from Cornwall, the south coast, Kent, East Anglia, the Midlands, the North of England, and Wales. Their importance to prehistoric man is confirmed by evidence for long-distance trade along these routes. Beautiful photography and detailed history are in this book.
