چکیده
This narrative examines early conceptualizations of geographical space among the primitive tribes of Europe in pre-history times. It was constructed as a result of intensive fieldwork, strenuous archeological investigations, laborious transcription of ancient runic devices and a strong desire to avoid actually doing anything useful. It could reveal important clues pertaining to the development of geographic thought, although that is very unlikely indeed. # 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
