Exerpta Archaeologica Leidensia II

<p>This is a second volume called Exerpta Archaeologica Leidensia and again it is a collection of papers written by staff members of the Faculty of Archaeology. It gives a good overview in time and space of the kind of research the Institute in Leiden is conducting. This time the periods vary from the Mesolithic to the present day, and geographically the studies are spread all over the world from Mexico to Maastricht.</p><p>Table of contents</p><p>01.
