Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0954086716, Paperback)This study of archaeo-astronomy looks at more than 2,500 communal tombs and sanctuaries from around the Mediterranean. After a brief discussion of Hoskin's aims and the methodology for his fieldwork, individual chapters focus on evidence from particular regions: Malta, Gozo, the Balearics, Iberia, southern France, Corsica and Sardinia, Sicily and Pantelleria, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco. Although there is no over-riding explanation that ties these sites and their orientations together, tentative interpretations are made throughout.(retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:16 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
