Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).

The neolithic revolution -- The human revolution -- Metaphors for origins -- Bodies, instruments and containers -- The accumulation and enchainment of identity -- Consuming and fragmenting people and things -- A prehistory of human technology : 3 million to 5,000 years ago -- Did agriculture change the world?

In this study Clive Gamble presents and questions two of the most famous descriptions of change in prehistory. The first is the 'human revolution', when evidence for art, music, religion and language first appears. The second is the economic and social revolution of the Neolithic period. Gamble identifies the historical agendas behind 'origins research' and presents a bold alternative to these established frameworks, relating the study of change to the material basis of human identity. He examines, through artefact proxies, how changing identities can be understood using embodied material metaphors and in two major case-studies charts the prehistory of innovations, asking, did agriculture really change the social world? This is an important and challenging book that will be essential reading for every student and scholar of prehistory.
