Displayed or Concealed? Cross Cultural Evidence for Symbolic and Ritual Activity Depositing Iron Age Animal Bones
Although Iron Age rituals involving the depositing of animal bones in pits have been discussed intensively in the literature, possible cross‐cultural and ethnographic parallels for the symbolism of such activity have been neglected. This paper begins to remedy this deficiency. Archaeological and ethnographic examples occur world‐wide, especially relating to the symbolism and treatment of animal heads and crania. They support previous arguments th…
Butchery of horse and dog at Witney Palace, Oxfordshire, and the knackering and feeding of meat to hounds during the post-medieval period
Upper levels of deposition associated with Witney manorhouse have yielded dense aggregations of bones which were mainly of horses and dogs. Probably these animals were butchered for their meat and skins. Possibly beginning in the medieval period, the practice reached a peak during the 18th century as occupation of the ruinous large house ceased. Archaeological and historical arguments point to the bones having little connection with normal househ…
Considerations for the identification of ritual deposits of animal bones in Iron Age pits
Although ritual practices amongst human groups are well documented, there are often great difficulties in deducing that ritual behaviour was one of the processes leading to the deposition of prehistoric animal bones. This paper examines developments in recent British literature, particularly those related to the interpretation of certain bones found in Iron Age pits and notably at Danebury hillfort. It discusses a set of arguments or criteria on …
What Are You Cookin' on a Hot
We consider an anomalous but internally consistent set of WH-questions produced by a 31⁄2-year-old child. They are of theoretical interest because they appear to violate constraints against the movement of constituents out of noun phrases, thus raising questions about the conditions of applicability of such constraints. After giving an account of the probable sources of these questions in several kinds of verbal interactions between the child and…
A Late Bronze Age Riverside Settlement at Wallingford, Oxfordshire
The investigation of a Late Bronze Age occupation layer on the banks of the Thames below Wallingford, on a number of occasions since 1949, has yielded an assemblage of Late Bronze Age pottery, flints, small finds including metalwork, and animal bones. The environment of the site, and the sequence of alluviation, have been elucidated by molluscan analysis.The precise character of the settlement is unknown, but it can be compared with other British…
