Books, Manuscripts
Richard Feachem gives the first comprehensive, illustrated account of the progress of human occupation of North Britain in prehistoric times. This great natural region comprises the north of England and the Lowlands of Scotland, extending northwards from Cumberland and Northumberland to the Forth-Clyde isthmus. Here, some nine thousand years ago, the first nomadic hunting bands penetrated, and the author traces the story of its peoples down to the last prehistoric phase, when the Celtic-speaking inhabitants of settlements varying in size from small pastoralist homesteads to walled towns up to as much as 40 acres in extent became involved with the Roman armies.
