The volume "Humans, environment and Chronology of the Late Glacial of
the North European Plain" assembles papers presented during a workshop
for the 15 th Congress of the Union International des Sciences
Prehistoriques et Protohistoriques held in Lisbon in September 2006. The
workshop was organised under the remit of U.I.S.P.P. Commission XXXII,
which focuses on the "The Final Palaeolithic of the Great European
Plain", and the present volume continues teh series of conference
proceedings that have been published at reuglar intervals during the
past decade. This most recent contribution underlines the geographical
spread and chronological depth of research into this topic, with papers
ranging from those in the British Isles to the eastern Baltic and from
the Paris Basin to southern Scandinavia, and covering a period of time
extending from the late Magdalenian to the early Mesolithic.
