Taken from Ash-sharq - Bulletin of the Ancient Near East: Archaeological, Historical and Societal Studies edited by Laura Battini. Pages 155-161. A close reading of the Sumerian version of the Flood Myth shows the god Enki(g) as the creator of the first divinatory dream. Enki(g)’s wisdom is precisely to be understood in this particular way, as ritual wisdom.
	Bronze Age metal workshops in Denmark between 1500–1300 BC: elite-controlled craft on Zealand by Heide Wrobel Nørgaard. Taken from New Perspectives on the Bronze Age edited by Sophie Bergerbrant and Anna Wessman. Pages 127-142. In an investigation of ornaments originating in the Nordic Bronze Age (1500–1300 BC), residues of the crafting process were collected and compared in order to detect the individual in metalcraft, their workshops and the dissemination area of each workshop.
	Identifying commoners in the Early Bronze Age: burials outside barrows by Sophie Bergerbrant, Kristian Kristiansen, Morten E. Allentoft, Karin M. Frei, T. Douglas Price, Karl-Göran Sjögren and Anna Tornberg. Taken from New Perspectives on the Bronze Age edited by Sophie Bergerbrant and Anna Wessman. Pages 37-64. This article discusses the possibility of social division and the presence of commoners in south Scandinavia during the Early Bronze Age. The discussion is based on new scientific and archaeological data generated in the project Travels, transmissions and transformations in temperate northern Europe during the 3rd and 2nd millennium BC: The rise of Bronze Age societies.
	The Kivik tomb: Bredarör enters into the digital arena — documented with OLS, SfM and RTI by Ulf Bertilsson, Johan Ling, Catarina Bertilsson, Rich Potter and Christian Horn. Taken from New Perspectives on the Bronze Age edited by Sophie Bergerbrant and Anna Wessman. Pages 289-305. The Bredarör cairn in Kivik sparked the interest of researchers by presenting the rare combination of rock art within a burial context. This paper presents the results of a holistic recording of the slabs in the Bredarör cairn using three modern methods: Structure from Motion (SfM), Optical Laser Scanning (OLS) and Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI).
	Tracing boundaries of local group identities in the Early Bronze Age — south-west Norway by Knut Ivar Austvoll. Taken from New Perspectives on the Bronze Age edited by Sophie Bergerbrant and Anna Wessman. Pages 421-434. This article explores the construction of boundaries between local group identities through the burial practice of south-west Norway in the Early Bronze Age. It is argued that active choices were made in the consolidation of groups that had both direct and indirect effects on choices made by neighbouring groups.

	El Sur de la Península Ibérica y el Mediterráneo Occidental: relaciones culturales en la segunda mitad del II milenio a.C. by Juan Manuel Garrido Anguita. 2017. ISBN 9781784916442. £65.00. (eBook ISBN 9781784916459, FREE to download in Open Access) 580 pages; illustrated throughout with 181 plates in colour. Spanish text. Greek epics, based on the Illiad and the Odyssey, are the basis for the first speculations that link societies all along the Mediterranean coast, from east to west.
