A richly illustrated guide to the dolmen culture of Prehistoric Sicily. Scattered around the world in woods and on mountains dolmens have posed a mystery for hundreds of years. The interpretations of these mysteries have been extremely imaginative over the centuries. But in Sicily it has only been in recent years that the presence of numerous megaliths has been revealed. This manual provides a comprehensive guide to the dolmens of Sicily and the artefacts as well as historical and cultural associations of these prehistoric sites. With 26 black and white illustrations

5.0 out of 5 stars Walking around through history.
Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2013
What a wonderful country Italy is! Nowhere on this planet is as rich in history, culture and scenic beauty! We all dream of visiting this splendid peninsular. My advice is never go without feeling curious and ready to wander around. It is impossible to see all there is to see on just a couple of holidays, so if you have already explored Rome, Venice, Florence, Milan and the Lakes do visit Sicily! Might I suggest a base in Syracuse so that you can breathe the atmosphere of Magna Grecia.
"Ancient Stones: The Prehistoric Dolmens of Sicily" by Salvatore Piccolo is a must to be guided through some of the most magnificent countryside that is overflowing with pre-historical evidence. The book encourages you to look carefully and explore the territory, just follow the routes so clearly indicated in the text. Children will be motivated to search for any signs of the past as they will certainly find something that will fill them with wonder.
The book is a small treasure, full of detail and historical background. Indeed, a brilliant read.

I very much enjoyed this book. It was an easy read whilst also very interesting and full of information. More should be written on this subject and still I think the author offered a great contribution, full of illustrations, clear explanations of his theories and his studies. I can definitely recommend it.
