Stone tool changes may show how Mesolithic hunter-gatherers responded to changing climate

Community size matters when people create a new language
Why are languages so different from each other? After comparing more than two thousand languages, scientists noticed that languages with more speakers are usually simpler than smaller languages. For instance, most English nouns can be turned into plurals by simply adding -s, whereas the German system is notoriously irregular. Linguists have proposed that languages adapt to fit different social structures.Credit: iStockphoto,...[[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, o -

Ancient Scythian burial mound excavated in Russia's Stavropol
Russian archaeologists have confirmed that the Scythians were present in the Ciscaucasia (northern Caucasus) in the last third of the 5th century BC, refuting the testimony of the ancient Greek historian Herodotus, who claimed that by that time they had left these lands. The scientists drew their conclusions by determining the date of the artefacts found in the mound near the village of Novozavodennoe.

Review – Hadrian’s Wall: history and guide
Guy de la Bédoyère
Amberley Publishing, £18.99
ISBN 978-1848689404
Review Edward BiddulphAnyone
visiting Hadrian’s Wall is well advised to take a guidebook. There are many
available, but one of the most useful is Guy de la Bédoyère’s handy volume.
Though a slim book, it is packed full of detail. The introduction provides the
essentials of the Wall’s history, its construction, and the army that lived
along it. A selection of epigraphic and other -
Review – The Clayton Collection
Frances Claire McIntosh
BAR Publishing, £38
ISBN 978-1407321479
Review Paul BoothThe
importance of the Clayton Collection extends significantly beyond its home
ground of Chesters (Cilurnum), though the focus of the present volume is on the
material from Cilurnum. That is set in the context of Clayton’s ownership of,
and interest in, the site; his position in the tradition of 19th-century
antiquarianism; the formation of the Collection; and its subsequent
development.
The study focuse -
Review – Hadrian’s Wall: everyday life on a Roman frontier
Patricia Southern
Amberley Publishing, £12.99
ISBN 978-1445690759
Review Edward BiddulphAs the
author herself asks, why do we need another book on Hadrian’s Wall? The
question is conclusively answered over the course of the book’s 400 pages. It
includes the standard sections on, for example, the history, construction, and
purpose of the Wall, but it digs deeper than many volumes into the Wall’s
management. The book takes a detailed look at Hadrian himself, examines the

Review – Hadrian’s Wall at Wallsend
Paul Bidwell
The Arbeia Society and Tyne and Wear Archives and Museums, £35
ISBN 978-1527229969
Review Edward BiddulphArchaeologists
do not often get the chance to excavate Hadrian’s Wall. The monument is well protected
by law (rightly so) and spared from development, meaning that invasive investigations
are few and far between. While that is good news for the preservation of the
Wall, it can make resolving long-standing questions about, say, construction or
chronology difficult. The -
Review – Hadrian’s Wall: a life
Richard Hingley
Oxford University Press, £36.99
ISBN 978-0198707028
Review Matthew SymondsThe
name Hadrian’s Wall may conjure up expectations of an opportunity to immerse ourselves
in the Roman past, but it is a sensation that sells the archaeological monument
short. The very fact that so much of it remains well preserved today emphasises
that the Wall did not simply vanish at the close of the Roman period. Although attempts
have been made to strip away later activity and present Rom -
Review – Hadrian’s Wall: a study in archaeological exploration and interpretation
David J Breeze
Archaeopress, £19.99
ISBN 978-1789691672
Review Edward BiddulphDavid
Breeze’s new book on Hadrian’s Wall began as a series of lectures to the
Society of Antiquaries of Scotland. Even wonderful lectures do not always
translate well to print, but there are no such fears with this volume, a
(forgive the pun) breezy tour of the Wall and its study.
In the first chapter, which looks at the
historiography of the Wall, we meet such luminaries as John Collingwood Bruce,

Interpreting Hadrian’s Wall
Vast arrays of sculpted and inscribed stone set the tone for the Clayton Museum – one of several English Heritage sites along Hadrian’s Wall that have been recently renovated and reinterpreted. ‘Curator’s Choice’ labels help to point out highlights among the many objects on display.
How do you explain the latest thinking about a 73-mile-long monument to the public? Visitors to Hadrian’s Wall in recent years may have noticed some changes at the English Heritage
