Chosen by public vote against competition from the many hundreds of other archaeology books published each year. The award was presented to lead author Andy Burnham, by archaeologist Julian Richards at their conference held over the weekend at Senate House, University of London.
Andy is lead author of 'The Old Stones - the Megalithic Sites of Britain and Ireland’ book, along with other contributors to the huge Megalithic Portal web resource which he founded and has been running continuously since 2001. The Old Stones is the most comprehensive and thought-provoking field guide ever published to the iconic standing stones and prehistoric places of Britain and Ireland and was previously awarded Current Archaeology Book of the Year.
A highly illustrated talk covering many of the fascinating themes and new discoveries highlighted in the book, along with a look at lesser known but interesting sites, including some in the local area.
