	Archaeological culture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		By using the term "culture", archeologists indicate that these patterns of assemblages are thought to be indicative of the wider behaviour of a particular society (though see the theories of processual archaeology and post-processual archaeology).
		Cultures are the basic units of Prehistoric archaeology and were first fully explored by Vere Gordon Childe in the late 1920s.
		The Culture History approach to archaeology is largely reliant on this rigid concept of material culture and human beings being closely connected.

		Windmill Hill and Druid Camp, the cattle of cognizance.
		Windmill Hill is thought never to have been a settlement, but a liminal place, away from the practice of everyday living, a place where people gathered at certain times to do particular things- certainly ritual, possibly of religious nature.
		In some cultures ‘kin’ is applied to those who eat together and the sense of family that is expressed upon camps is found here.

		It is possible to trace the lines of the three circuits of Neolithic enclosure ditch at Windmill Hill, but the shallow depressions which are visible are mainly ditches excavated in the 1920s and subsequently refilled almost to their tops.
		For Windmill Hill, current interpretations emphasise the role of the hill through repeated use, a site where coming together may have been a way in which Neolithic people reassured themselves as to the nature of their society and reinforced their ideas about what it was right to do, to make, and to eat.
		Yet Windmill Hill remains one of the largest enclosures in the group, and its seminal importance remains for its crucial role in defining the early Neolithic of southern Britain in the middle years of the 20th century.

	Abbotsbury - Dorset
		Towards the end of the middle-stone age, the south-west was 'invaded' by a wave of farmers who crossed the English channel in boats made of skins stretched across wooden frames.
		The Ridgeway hills that stretch east-west, north of the village, provided a natural causeway for Neolithic man (4500-2000BC), bronze age man (2000-500BC) and iron age man (500BC-50AD).
		At this time the Swannery was considered as a potential tourist attraction, although the railway's purpose was to transport iron-ore from the opencast quarries in the hills behind the village.

	Neolithic Europe (Detailed Description) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		This course concentrates on the first highly developed Neolithic culture of southern Britain, the Windmill Hill Culture, established in the late 5th millennium B.C.E., which constructed one of the world's most massive and mysterious megalithic monument complexes at a place now known as Avebury in the County of Wiltshire.
		The stages of the Windmill Hill Culture's development produced at first distinctive long barrows, then ritual centers of community life now misleadingly called "causewayed camps," and finally "henges," the functions of which are still hotly disputed by professional archaeologists and imaginative speculators alike.
		To set it in context, Professor Adams surveys rapidly the range of megalithic cultures (a specialized type of Neolithic culture) in Western Europe, from southeastern Spain to Scandinavia, concluding with the navigationally sophisticated megalithic complex at Carnac in Brittany.
