	The Archaeology of Time Travel Experiencing the Past in the 21st Century edited by Bodil Petersson and Cornelius Holtorf. 2017. ISBN 9781784915001. £38.00. Also available in Open Access as a free-to-download PDF eBook. viii+318 pages; illustrated throughout in colour and black & white. This volume explores the relevance of time travel as a characteristic contemporary way to approach the past. If reality is defined as the sum of human experiences and social practices, all reality is partly virtual, and all experienced and practiced time travel is real.
	Romano-Celtic Mask Puzzle Padlocks A study in their Design, Technology and Security by Jerry Slocum and Dic Sonneveld. 2017. Hardback, ISBN 9781784915643, £45.00. (eBook ISBN 9781784915650, from £16.00 + VAT if applicable) 144 pages; highly illustrated in full colour throughout. This book presents a little-known and ingenious artefact of the Roman world: a small puzzle padlock whose font plate bears a face or ‘mask’ of ‘Celtic’ style. The padlocks were designed to secure small bags or pouches and their distribution extended across Europe with the majority found in the Danubian region and in the vicinity of Aquileia.
	New Perspectives on the Bronze Age Proceedings of the 13th Nordic Bronze Age Symposium held in Gothenburg 9th to 13th June 2015 edited by Sophie Bergerbrant and Anna Wessman. ISBN 9781784915988. £60.00. (eBook ISBN 9781784915995, from £16.00 + VAT if applicable) x+450 pages; illustrated throughout in black & white with 61 colour plates. This collection of articles helps to explain why the Bronze Age has come to hold such a fascination within modern archaeological research. By providing new theoretical and analytical perspectives on the evidence new interpretative avenues have opened, it situates the history of the Bronze Age in both a local and a global setting.
	Catalogue of Artefacts from Malta in the British Museum by Josef Mario Briffa SJ and Claudia Sagona. ISBN 9781784915889. 2017. £50.00. (eBook ISBN 9781784915896, from £16.00 + VAT if applicable) viii+326 pages; illustrated throughout in colour and black & white. The archaeology of the Maltese archipelago is remarkable. Lying at the heart of the central Mediterranean, ancient lives were, at times, moulded by isolation and harsh elements and the landscape is shaped by millennia of intensive land use. Ancient finds from the islands are rare, and those held in the British Museum form an important collection.
	Birds, Beasts and Burials A study of the human-animal relationship in Romano-British St. Albans by Brittany Elayne Hill. Archaeopress Roman Archaeology 24. ISBN 9781784915964. £30.00. (eBook ISBN 9781784915971, from £16.00 + VAT if applicable) vi+204 pages; illustrated throughout in black & white with 35 colour plates. The human-animal relationship is one that has been pondered by scholars for ages. It has been used to define both what it means to be human and what it means to be animal. Birds, Beasts and Burials examines human-animal relationships as found in the mortuary record within the area of Verulamium that is now situated in the modern town of St. Albans.
	‘Poedicvlorvm oppida’ Spazi urbani della Puglia centrale in età romana by Custode Silvio Fioriello. ISBN 9781784915926. Archaeopress Roman Archaeology 23, 2017. £38.00.

	Cedar Forests, Cedar Ships Allure, Lore, and Metaphor in the Mediterranean Near East by Sara A. Rich. 2017. ISBN 9781784913656. £36.00. (eBook ISBN 9781784913663. from £15.83 + VAT if applicable) x+280 pages; highly illustrated throughout in colour and black & white. Drawing from object-oriented ontologies and other ‘new materialisms,’ this book constructs a hylocentric anti-narrative spreading from the Cretaceous to the contemporary. With a dual focus on the woods and the watercraft, and on the historical overlap between them, the book takes another step in the direction of challenging the conceptual binaries of nature/culture and subject/object, while providing an up-to-date synthesis of the relevant archaeological and historical data.
	Egypt 2015: Perspectives of Research Proceedings of the Seventh European Conference of Egyptologists (2nd-7th June, 2015, Zagreb – Croatia) by Mladen Tomorad and Joanna Popielska-Grzybowska.

(eBook ISBN 9781784915872, from £16.00 + VAT if applicable) vi+58 pages; illustrated throughout in colour and black & white. One of the most fascinating topics in the study of ancient art concerns artistic practices and models and the means of transmission of iconographic designs and decorative compositions. This phenomenon has not drawn much attention of scholars of the ancient art. This study presents some examples that suggest the existence of pattern books in the Ancient Greek world.
	The Resurgam Submarine ‘A Project for Annoying the Enemy’ by Peter Holt. 2017. ISBN 9781784915827. £18.00.  (eBook ISBN 9781784915834, from £16.00 + VAT if applicable) xiv+118 pages; illustrated throughout in colour and black & white.

	Coventry’s Medieval Suburbs Excavations at Hill Street, Upper Well Street and Far Gosford Street 2003-2007 by Paul Mason, Danny McAree and Iain Soden. 2017. ISBN 9781784915629. £30.00.

It is, primarily, a guide to help with the identification of cloth seals, both those found within and those originating from the United Kingdom.
	Not just Porridge: English Literati at Table edited by Francesca Orestano and Michael Vickers. 2017. ISBN 9781784915780. £20.00. (eBook ISBN 9781784915797, from £16.00 + VAT if applicable) xii+180 pages; illustrated throughout in black & white with 8 colour pages. The essays presented in Not just Porridge address both the scholar and the bold, adventurous cook. They offer the crumbs of what might be found in great and famous works of literature. Concocted in Italy by scholars of English and sifted through the judgement of the English editor, this volume traces a curious history of English literature, from the tasty and spicy recipes of the Middle Ages down to very recent times, threatened as they are by junk food and microwaved dinners.
	Making a Mint Comparative Studies in Late Iron Age Coin Mould by Mark Landon. 2017. ISBN 9781784914080. £34.00. (eBook ISBN 9781784914073, from £16.00 + VAT if applicable) xii+198 pages; illustrated throughout in black & white. This book presents the first large-scale comparative study of Iron Age coin mould. The subject of Iron Age minting techniques is an important one that reveals a great deal about Iron Age political organisation and economy but which, until now, has remained largely unreported.
