Product Description

Product Description

It frequently feels that there is nothing new to explore on the earth - the most distant places are visited by TV crews and even tourists. However, the past can also be a foreign country and recently archaeologists have begun to explore a vast, unknown landscape hidden beneath the North Sea. Inhabited by early man, this land disappeared beneath the sea when sea levels rose more than 8000 years ago. This enigmatic landscape, known as Doggerland after the famous banks in the North Sea, has remained hidden until now. Today, we can map unknown rivers, hills, lakes and valleys using 3D seismic data originally collected for oil exploration. Some 23,000 km2 of this 'lost world' (an area equivalent to that of Wales) have now been revealed. This book tells the exciting story of how this lost country was rediscovered by archaeology and what the results of new work are telling us about what happened to man during the last great phase of global warming, when a massive area of Europe was lost as a consequence of climate change. Although a study of the past, this book demonstrates how archaeology can provide vital information for the future.

Format:Paperback
An excellent book. A concept that had been very, very vague in the back of the mind suddenly becomes reality. The maps are wonderful. Suddenly you can see where it all was, and how it all was, thousands of years ago. It redimensions Europe. Since I bought my copy I have bought 3 more for my family.

A gripping and authorative book 13 April 2010
By Alan M. Aindow - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
An excellent book for those who want a lucid, gripping and authorative look at the dramatic loss of Doggerland and the impact on the people who lived there. There is scientific detail but always lucidly explained. Towards the end of the book, our present climate change challenges are put in this prehistoric perspective.
