Book excerpt: Drawing on a variety of sources of evidence and over-coming many difficulties with the data, this study provides a good factual account of the Late Iron Age in North-West Thrace. It is at this time that the Thracian tribes reached the peak of their cultural development and Nikola Theodossiev assesses the major events and achievements of this period. Her reconstruction of cultural and historical development focuses on the archaeological and written evidence, and on the subjects of spatial organisation and territories, chronology, mortuary practices and settlement. The evidence is collated and interpreted, frequently with statistical analysis, and is well presented.
