Apart from comments relating to ordinal and periodisation issues, the reviewer mainly stressed the research approach assumed in the monograph in question, one which is unjustified from the viewpoint of the present studies on prehistory. This approach leads to formulating conclusions which are not supported by either the existing source materials, or particularly in the course of non-scientific reasoning proposed by the author. Unfortunately, the latter has very little in common with the contemporary theory of studies on prehistoric cultures. Finally, it should be stressed that while Radosław Janiak has prepared a relatively extensive work, he considers stone burial mounds as separate objects, excluded from their cultural context of that time}, type={Text}, title={The most recent monograph on the Kashubian barrow s in the Bronze and Iron Ages, in other words, how some archaeologists find themselves in a post-truth world}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/iae/Content/67495/PDF/WA308_87791_P244_The-most-recent-mono_I.pdf}, keywords={barrows, Kashubian Lake District, Bronze Age, Early Iron Age}, }
