Excavations 2005 - 2018. ... The graves presented in the book are part of an Eneolithic necropolis located in the Black Sea region of Thrace. So far, this is the first and only necropolis south of the Balkan mountains that can be linked to the first population to use copper metallurgy in the Balkans. Its exploration is not complete. These are the results of eight seasons of excavating: in total 37 graves from the Early and Late Eneolithic. Although the investigation is ongoing, we decided to publish the information collected thus far, because it is of interest with its new and practically unique data on the funeral rites ... |

Second World War in Europe was fought on three fronts: Eastern, Western and Italian. The most bloody and devastating fights were on the Eastern front. The war ended with the total defeat of the Axis powers. Shortly after the outbreak of the war Hitler's Germany managed ... |

Billy Plimpton is an eleven-year-old boy with a big dream. He wants to be a stand-up comedian when he grows up: delivering pinpoint punch-lines and having audiences hang on his every hilarious word. A tough career for anyone, but surely impossible for Billy, who has a stammer. How will he find his voice, if his voice won't let him speak? The idea for this story came from Helen Rutter's son, who has a stammer: she wanted to write the book that he would love to read, starring a child like him."Very funny, very touching, very truthful - a total delight to read." Jacqueline Wilson "Amazing." ... |

Master of the sublime: The essential Impressionist. ... No other artist, apart from J.M.W. Turner, tried as hard as Claude Monet (1840 - 1926) to capture light itself on canvas.

It could be said that Monet reinvented the possibilities of color. Whether it was through his early interest in Japanese prints, his time as a conscript in the dazzling light of Algeria, or his personal acquaintance with the ... |
