    Hi,

    I was wondering if anyone could tell me in which book Colin Renfrew first published his theory on megalithic tombs in Europe being designed by Neolithic farmers as territorial markers. Well, perhaps it was in a journal or something that it is was first published but I assume that he would have included it in one of his books. I have to write an essay on it and am having difficulty finding information on it. Cheers
