The discovery of the Dover Bronze Age boat sixteen years ago continues to inspire and stimulate debate about the nature of seafaring and cultural connections in prehistoric Europe; the twelve papers presented here reflect an increasing recognition of cross-channel similarities and a coming together of maritime ('wet') and terrestrial ('dry') archaeology. Contents: Building new connections (Peter Clark); Encompassing the sea: 'maritories' and Bronze Age maritime interactions (Stuart Needham); From Picardy to Flanders: transmanche connections in the Bronze Age (Jean Bourgeois and Marc Talon); British immigrants killed abroad in the seventies: the rise and fall of a Dutch culture (Liesbeth Theunissen); The Canche Estuary (Pas-de-Calais, France) from the early Bronze Age to the emporium of Quentovic: a traditional trading place between south east England and the continent (Michel Philippe); Looking forward: maritime contacts in the first millennium BC (Barry Cunliffe); Copper Mining and production at the beginning of the British Bronze Age new evidence for Beaker/EBA prospecting and some ideas on scale, exchange, and early smelting technologies (Simon Timberlake); The demise of the flint tool industry (Chris Butler); Land at the other end of the sea? Metalwork circulation, geographical knowledge and the significance of British/Irish imports in the Bronze Age of the Low Countries (David Fontijn); The master(y) of hard materials: thoughts on technology, materiality and ideology occasioned by the Dover boat (Mary W Helms); Exploring the ritual of travel in prehistoric Europe: the Bronze Age sewn-plank boats in context (Robert van de Noort); In his hands and in his head: the Amesbury Archer asmagician (Andrew Fitzpatrick).
