EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable reconstruction drawing by the talented Judith Dobie, offering us a glimpse into the ancient world of Neolithic flint mining. The image presents a birds-eye view of the bustling mining site located on Easton Down in Wiltshire. With meticulous attention to detail, Dobie skillfully captures the intricacies of this prehistoric work environment. The scene depicts large round and oval pits where industrious miners extract precious flint and chalk rubble. These valuable resources were essential for crafting tools, weapons, and building materials during that era. The sheer scale of these excavations is awe-inspiring, emphasizing the significance of this site as an important source for Neolithic communities. Adjacent to the mining area lies a camp and settlement, further highlighting the interconnectedness between human habitation and resource extraction during this period. It is fascinating to imagine how these early settlers established their homes near such an active industrial zone. Dobie's illustration not only serves as a visual representation but also acts as a time machine transporting us back thousands of years ago. Through her artistry, we are able to appreciate both the ingenuity and labor involved in Neolithic flint mining while gaining insight into our ancestors' daily lives.
