An innovative volume of fifteen essays on Prehistoric Material and Spiritual Culture has been published by Cambridge 探花直播 Press and 探花直播McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research.

探花直播volume is entitled Becoming Human and looks afresh at the relationships between early art, religion and symbolism. In the process, it aims to uncover new perspectives on the way in which human values and beliefs emerged.

It examines the great diversity of Upper Palaeolithic evidence for activities which were clearly symbolic, such as the creation of representations of animals and other features of the natural world. 探花直播authors explore the links between symbolism, spirituality and humanity in prehistoric societies, both in Europe and elsewhere, with religion and archaeological evidence for spiritual practices being a particular focus.

探花直播book is edited by Professor Colin Renfrew, Senior Fellow of the McDonald Institute and Dr Iain Morley, Fellow of the Institute and Research Fellow of Darwin College. 探花直播chapters are written by fifteen of the world鈥檚 leading researchers into Palaeolithic archaeology, symbolism and spirituality.
