Meals for the dead
Accessory vessels, including platters, dishes, beakers, flagons, jars, and amphorae, are a common feature of Romano-British burials, raising questions as to their provenance; for example, were such vessels recycled from the domestic sphere or made specially for funerary purposes? Furthermore, uncertainty surrounds their purpose: did they contain foods for the deceased, possibly for their final journey to the underworld? Interestingly, organic res…

Recent Work at Drumquhassle Roman Fort, Stirlingshire
Drumquhassle is one of the series of 'glen-blocking' forts positioned along the edge of the Highlands, little investigated but long thought to be associated with the campaigns of Agricola. New evidence for the history of the fort has accumulated in recent years from metal-detecting, field-walking and a watching brief in the adjacent quarry. This confirms the fort as being Flavian in date, with no sign of later reoccupation. Many of the finds reco…
Milton's Imperial Epic
Written during the crucial first phase of English empire-building in the New World, Paradise Lost registers the radically divided attitudes toward the settlement of America that existed in seventeenth-century Protestant England. Evans looks at the relationship between Milton's epic and the pervasive colonial discourse of Milton's time. Evans bases his analysis on the literature of exploration and colonialism. The primary sources on which he draws…
Roman Finds Assemblages, Towards an Integrated Approach
Since this paper was to be given to a Theoretical Roman Archaeology conference an attempt has been made here to examine a little the relationship between theoretical approaches and the generally pragmatic work of field archaeology in the context of Roman finds assemblages. It is assumed for the purposes of this paper that our basic task as archaeologists is to examine and analyse Romano-British society by means of reasoning about its material rem…

Where can we get a beast without hair
Patients' choices and perceptions after an invitation to participate in treatment decisions
On brûle bien les sorcières. Les meurtres muti et leur répression
Muti murders and witchcraft. Within a South Africa in the process of transformation, the increasing medicine murders and the killing of so called witches are the signs calling for an objective analysis of the concept of withcraft, its roots, its manifestations and its political and social consequences. Although the phenomenon has been widely illustrated, it remains taboo and unstudied and therefore might be used by the very ones who appear willin…
From the End of Roman Britain to The’‘celtic West
This paper suggests that the end of Roman Britain would have been an event noticeable, even to the peasant labouring in his fields, by a sudden collapse in the trading economy. It suggests that this was, perhaps, triggered by a ‘tax revolt’amongst the élite. It then seeks to trace possible lines of continuity and transformations in various key features of Romano‐British life in the fifth to seventh centuries. Many of the transformations are seen …

Graffiti and the Evidence of Literacy and Pottery use in Roman Britain
The distribution of graffiti on pottery is examined and conclusions drawn about varying levels of literacy on different types of site. The pattern established provides a contrast with the evidence from monumental inscriptions and gives new information about the use of pottery in Roman Britain
The Growth of Urban Centres in Java Since 1961
Peter McDonald led me to question the original census figures and is therefore responsible for starting me off on the investigation described here. He and others. in particular Graeme Hugo, Terence H. Hull. Russell Lapthorne. Charles Lerman. Amri Marzali and William J. O'Malley gave me invaluable help and advice along the way, for all of which I am deeply grateful Thanks are due also to Val Lyon for drawing the figures
Excavations at Upper Borough Walls, Bath, 1980
EXCAVATIONS took place on the northern city walls of Bath adjacent to the site of the North Gate. A 2nd-century rampart was later cut back to receive a perimeter wall, fronted by a newly-metalled berm. A wide ditch beyond this was probably of 4th-century date. The Roman wall survived into the late Saxon period when outworks were constructed on the revetted lip of the re-cut ditch. These outworks were rebuilt, probably in stone, at some time durin…
