The Chambered Tombs of the Isle of Man

A study by Audrey Henshall 1971-1978

Herausgeber: Lynch, Frances; Davey, Peter

Beschreibung

This is the first book ever devoted to the chambered tombs of the Isle of Man and, though there are no more than nine surviving monuments, they are of considerable interest and importance because of the central location of the island in the north Irish Sea where cultural influences and traditions of tomb building are mixed.
