I am currently writing an illustrated book about Avebury. It's a very big book, almost a foot square, with over 250 pages and thousands of photographs and plans. Every aspect of Avebury and its surrounding landscape is included, as well as some 70 other prehistoric sites in the Avebury area. The books contains lots of new discoveries and features some sites long thought to have been lost. Publication is expected to be in the spring of 2012.

 

 
 

My article about the use of flint knives as 'bull roarers' for producing sound appeared in the May/June 2010 issue (no. 112) of British Archaeology magazine. Read it here:

For several years I have been involved in Archaeoacoustics - the study of the uses of sound in prehistory. Three of my projects are featured below:
