Table of ContentsReviewsAs far as this reviewer is aware, this is the first book to treat the archaeology of the circum-African islands as a coherent whole. It does so expertly and comprehensively. Mitchell is one of the few scholars qualified to write a book of this type, moving as it does across enormous swathes of space and time and drawing on various traditions of archaeology and theoretical perspectives.
