Douglass Bailey's volume fills the huge gap that existed for a comprehensive synthesis, in English, of the archaeology of the Balkans between 6,500 and 2,000 BC; much research on the prehistory of Eastern Europe was inaccessible to a western audience before now, because of linguistic barriers.
Bailey argues against traditional interpretations of the period, which focus on the origins of agriculture and animal breeding. He demonstrates that this was a period when monumental social and material changes occurred in the lives of the people in this region, with new technologies and ways of displaying identity.
Balkan Prehistory will be required reading for everyone studying the Neolithic, Copper and early Bronze Ages of Eastern Europe.

My interests range widely. Current focus is on the archaeology of art and visual culture and on art/archaeology as alternative production. Work is at the interface of art and archaeology, as well as in the challenging space beyond both disciplines. Intentions are to reposition our approaches to prehistoric visual culture and to create radical alternatives to archaeological publication (e.g., the Unearthed book; see cover above). Graduate applicants wishing to explore these topics must contact me before submitting their formal applications. Other interests: Surrealist periodicals; DADA; early 20th century photography; the anthropological, archaeological, and visual archive; and the prehistoric archaeology of Europe. Please see my photo work. Scroll to the bottom of this webpage to find a link to my current CV. Almost all of my journal articles and book chapter are available from academia.edu.
