Review Quotes: "Neolithic Studies Group Seminar Papers (this is number 16) are always useful and great value. This is no exception: there isn't really a duff/pedestrian paper among them, and certainly youthful enthusiasm can be heard stridently coming from those liminal hill tops."-- "Current Archaeology"
