Bear journeys in early modern England
This article offers unprecedented insight into the domestic movements of early modern commercial entertainment producers based on fresh archival and archaeological details about bears and bearwards, centring on a surviving two-month journey record. We plot roadways taken and the lengths and times via GIS mapping, offering a fresh spatial humanities methodology to explore commercial life on the road and its consequences. Together, these sources an…
Modelling diffusion of innovation curves using radiocarbon data
Archaeological data provide a potential to investigate the diffusion of technological and cultural traits. However, much of this research agenda currently needs more formal quantitative methods to address small sample sizes and chronological uncertainty. This paper introduces a novel Bayesian framework for inferring the shape of diffusion curves using radiocarbon data associated with the presence/absence of a particular innovation. We developed t…
Changing Peoples and Practices
Plague, Climate and Faith in Early Medieval Western Britain
Recently compiled datasets for hillforts and corn-drying kilns in the west of Britain, when subject to chronological analysis using Kernel Density Estimation, show a sharp and lasting fall-off in activity in the later 6th and 7th centuries. We investigate this through the regional and broader evidence for three major paradigms of change at this time: the Justinianic plague, climate change and the growth of Christianity, the last manifested in tra…
Funerary Diversity and Cultural Continuity
The Beaker phenomenon in Britain is typically represented by a particular form of pottery and its inclusion in graves with flexed or crouched inhumations referred to as Beaker burials. Analysis of the full range of burial evidence, however, reveals a high degree of variability in funerary rites including cremation and skeletal disarticulation. Summed probability distribution analysis of radiocarbon dates provides evidence for continuity of these …
