Acknowledgements

This book is the result of over fifteen years of reading, and travelling around Europe, years which I have enjoyed immensely due to the kindness I have received from many individuals whose names it would take this book to fill. I have especially happy memories of my student days in Cambridge, Tbingen, Prague and Frankfurt, and more recently of digging in central France. I have been generously supported financially by the University of Sheffield, the British Academy, and the British Council through various exchange grants. Especially I must thank my family who have had to suffer periodic desertion as I have disappeared to foreign parts to try to catch up with recent developments in the subject.

I have been helped in the preparation of the manuscript by Anne Sienko and Dorothy Cruse who typed the various versions of the text. Most of the finds drawings are the work of Barry Vincent, and Arnold Pryor helped by drawing some of the maps. The following have kindly provided photographs for reproduction: The Danish National Museum (1a); The National Museum, Ankara (11b); The University Museum, Pennsylvania (11c); The Louvre Museum, Paris (13c); The Museum of Art, School of Design, Providence, Rhode Island (17d); Prof. W.Kimming (22a, c, d); Dr Jorg Biel (23a, b); The Swiss National Museum (32, 36f); The Rheinisches Landesmuseum, Bonn (35a, b, c); The Wrttembergisches Landesmuseum, Stuttgart (34j, k); The British Museum (42d, 48m, n); and The Ashmolean Museum, Oxford (28, 42a, e, f, g, h).
