«El alba de la civilización» is Colin Renfrew's essay on archaeology and history, published by Istmo in paperback (306 pages, in Spanish).
Radiocarbon dating not only provided a new method for dating remains but also forced a reinterpretation of European prehistory. Colin Renfrew studies how C14 altered established chronologies and explanations about the origin and diffusion of prehistoric European cultures, combining archaeology and historiography.
