The editors would like to thank the participants of the European Association of Archaeologists Glasgow 2015 session, who encouraged us to create this volume, and all of the authors for contributing stimulating papers. Each of the chapters in this volume was peer-reviewed by two anonymous reviewers, and we are immensely grateful for their constructive criticism and support. The team at Oxbow have been an invaluable help, and we especially thank Julie Gardiner for her care and attention.

As we are each based at different organisations and in different countries, there are a number of individuals and groups that we need to acknowledge, as follows. Tom Dawson thanks Historic Environment Scotland, University of St Andrews, Heritage Lottery Fund Scotland, Chris Royal-Dawson, and community groups around the entire coast of Scotland. Courtney Nimura thanks Prof Chris Gosden and the School of Archaeology, University of Oxford; Prof Paul Tacon, Griffith University; her former colleagues at Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA)and the Thames Discovery Programme volunteers. Elas Lpez-Romero thanks the European Commission Marie Curie programme (eSCOPES project), Prof Chris Scarre and former colleagues at Durham University, Incipit-CSIC and his current host institution the LaScArBx LabEx Sciences Archologiques de Bordeaux. Marie-Yvane Daire thanks the CNRS research team CReAAH (Centre de Recherche en Archologie, Archosciences, Histoire) and the Fondation de France.
