This lively illustrated book unearths more than seventy intriguing mysteries: archaeological sites and artefacts that take us deep into the lives of Britain’s ancient inhabitants.

They include buried treasure, stone circles and geoglyphs, earth temples dedicated to the moon, caves filled with medieval carvings, and trinkets to ward off dark magic. From famous sites such as Stonehenge and Glastonbury to the prehistoric art of Ilkley Moor, the caves of Gower and the mummies of the Hebrides, I reveal their secret history and show how these strange and ancient things still resonate today.
