Overview

"This books present papers on the archaeology of the region between the river Meuse and the city of Oss (Netherlands), locally known as the ""Maaskant"". The papers presented in this volume discuss the period from 3000 BC until 1500 AD. The wealth of archaeological data from this region indicated this part of the Netherlands was inhabited by early farmers already 5000 years ago. The strategic location near the river did not only provide fertile grounds but also formed an intersection in transport and communication routes."
