‘Any present generation is custodian of the past for the benefit and edification of generations yet to come.’1Approaches to the archaeological heritage is, of course, the title of the pioneering bo

The Marlborough Mound, Wiltshire. A Further Neolithic Monumental Mound by the River Kennet
Recent radiocarbon dates obtained from two soil cores taken through the Marlborough Castle mound, Wiltshire, show the main body of it to be a contemporaneous monument to Silbury Hill, dating to the second half of the 3rd millennium cal bc . In light of these dates, this paper considers the sequence identified within the cores, which includes two possible flood events early in the construction of the mound. It also describes four cores taken throu…

The Drama of Bangladesh
This article considers the current situation in Bangladesh and the natural, economic and political challenges which it faces. Can a country of 150 million people join the middle-income group in just a few years? Maybe. The economy has been growing at about six per cent for the last few years on the back of new export industries and the e country's giant Non-governmental Organisations (NGOs), like Grameen and BRAC, the world's largest NGO have bee…

Heritage and Tourism in The Global Village
A nation's heritage is one of the most potent forces for generating tourism: the Tower of London is the greatest 'visitor attraction' in Britain. But it is pushed into insignificance by comparison with the visitors travelling to Disneyland, Epcot and the other entertainment complexes in the USA; and it will be dwarfed by Euro-Disneyland east of Paris. So how should heritage attractions respond: should they find their own specific audiences and re…

Community nurses and social workers learning together
Collaboration between different professional groups and agencies is an essential element in the provision of high quality community care for people with complex health and social needs. There are, however, a number of barriers to effective interprofessional working. These include: the differing structures and operational philosophies of organizations; the differing languages and values of professional groups; professional and agency rivalries; an…
Cultural Landscapes of Britain
'Britain' and 'cultural landscape' as used here are defined. The World Heritage categorisation provides the basis for a brief review of the range of such landscapes in Britain, with specific examples being named and briefly characterised. Relict landscapes are particularly noted. 'Threats to cultural landscapes are identified as of both development and decrepitude. A short discussion of the purpose and viability of cultural landscapes in Britain,…

A limestone landscape from the air

Oil in Asia
The twenty-first century has been dubbed, even before its advent, as the Pacific century. While perhaps still premature, the epithet is representative of a general perception that the centre of the world economy is increasingly moving towards the Asia-Pacific region, and the distribution of economic power is steadily moving away from Europe and the USA. This study is concerned with one aspect of this transition, the impact on the energy industrie…
The Bangladesh economy a regional perspective
Heritage Lines
I respond to Odermatts's request for an open dialogue with a personal contribution. Heritage as theory can be abstruse as well as too abstract so I am fired on my first-person trajectory by the interest he generates in writing, albeit impersonally and in proper academic mode, about something which has been experienced as well as studied. In any case, if anything at all has come out of some 10-15 years of seriously-labelled heritage studies, it is…

Review-article on the eight-volume series edited by Anna Ritchie, Exploring Scotland's heritage (1985-7), welcomed as a 'considerable achievement by all those involved'. The series clearly demonstrates the value of the Royal Commission database to a wider public as well as to academic scholarship of Inventory type; indeed both Scottish and English Commissions are responding to a changed political situation, while maintaining the integrity of thei…

What price the man-made heritage
British archaeology and British archaeologists now live in a fast-changing world. There are new administrative agencies and frameworks, major reviews of monument protection (above, this issue) and of university archaeology (last issue), a fundamental shift in the economics of the countryside (current issues passim), and a new mood in which an entrepreneurial 'heritage industry' has become conspicuous.In 1986 the Environment Select Committee of th…
Lyonesse revisited
The Isles of Scilly form an archipelago some 27 miles (43 km) WSW of Land's End, Cornwall, and lie within an oval area about 12 miles (19km) SW-NE and 5 miles (8km) NW-SE. Five islands (St Mary's, Tresco, St Martin's, Bryher and Agnes; Fig. I) are inhabited, most of the permanent population of 2,000-plus being on St Mary's. Some 40 further smaller isles bear vegetation, several with signs of former occupation, and there are several hundred more d…
