Le Phenomene Campaniforme Dans L'Europe Du 3eme Millenaire Avant Notre Ere

Aims at synthesizing the available archaeological evidence for the Bell Beaker phenomenon. The core of the work consists of chapters which respectively offer synthetic regional accounts of the Bell Beaker material expressions. These chapters first deal with north-western and central Europe (Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland), second with western Europe (France, Italy, Iberian Peninsula) and last with the British Isles. For the sake of comparison, which remains the ultimate goal of this research, all chapters are organized along the same lines and start with an examination of the various local substrata. Includes appendix of C14 dates. In French with English abstract.
