In short, this is an enjoyable and engaging book that I can highly recommend. It enlightens readers about the research on Doggerland from many angles and connects us with this distant past., Within the book there are contributions from some 30 authors, and the editors are to be congratulated on bringing them together to produce the resulting coherent narrative... ...Overall, this provides the reader with a well-informed picture of the process of investigation, as well as an outline of the wide-ranging results... ...Both editors and contributors are to be congratulated on the resulting multifaceted narrative of how and where and why this land under the North Sea should become better known., [A] fascinating presentation of such a drowned world--not known from myths and legends, but from several decades of interdisciplinary research... The many fascinating illustrations, as well as the instructive tables and graphs providing a clear view of the long-term chronological developments, makes the book an important and inspiring introduction to this lost world.

Synopsis
A comprehensive introduction to a million years of human habitation in the vast prehistoric landscape under the North Sea: Doggerland., This popular-science book tells the story of one of the most important, but least known major archaeological sites in Europe: Doggerland. Few people know that the beaches along the North Sea lie on the edge of a vast lost world. A prehistoric landscape that documents almost a million years of human habitation and lay dry for most of that time.Doggerland is where early hominids left the first footprints in northern Europe, more than 900,000 years ago. Later, for hundreds of thousands of years, it was the scene of ice ages. A world of woolly mammoths and rhinoceroses, horses and reindeer and the successful Neanderthals who hunted them, including Krijn: the first Neanderthal from Doggerland.At the end of the last Ice Age, the first modern humans also left their traces here, including the famous Leman-and-Ower-Banks spearhead - the first documented Doggerland find - and some of the oldest art in the region. With the onset of the Holocene, our current era, Doggerland's inhabitants were increasingly confronted with climate change and rising sea levels, just as we are today.The Mesolithic hunter-gatherers lived in a rich, but constantly changing world - to which they successfully adapted. Ongoing submergence and a huge tsunami around 6150 BC marked the beginning of the end. A few centuries later, the last islands disappeared under the waves and with them the story of Doggerland was lost in time. This book brings this vanished world back to the surface.
