Subtitled An analysis of the later prehistoric monuments of the Yorkshire Wolds and the culture which marked their final phase this volume re-examines the evidence for monument and settlement distribution and material culture in the East Yorkshire Wolds. Dent discerns a distinct Iron Age burial tradition, and builds up a picture of a stratified society. He also posits a shift in the ritual use of monuments from earlier sites in the Rudston area to the headwaters of the River Hull.
