Plants and People in Ancient Scotland
by Camilla Dickson and James Dickson

An authoritative and interesting study of the exploitation of different
plant species by the people of Scotland, from the earliest Mesolithic
people, through to the medieval period. Camilla and James Dickson look at
both wild and cultivated plants and their wide-ranging uses not only as
food, but also as fuel, in construction, dyeing, in medicine and for
producing alcohol. From the Yellow Iris found at Skara Brae to the hidden
delights of the sewage-filled ditch at Bearsden Fort, this is an important
archaeobotanical study written for the general reader as much as the
specialist. Includes a large section on noteworthy plants which is packed
full of information and is a great source of reference. 320p, 171 b/w
illus (Tempus 2000)
