Originally published in 1949, this book presents an account of the progress of research into the prehistory of the area then known as Southern Rhodesia during the first half of the twentieth century. The text avoids a consecutive account of Stone Age cultures in favour of an arrangement whereby the different localities selected for description are allowed to tell their own story. Numerous illustrative figures and a glossary are also included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in prehistoric man and archaeology.
