  • Remote sensing of the subsurface between a Cistercian abbey and a medieval grange

    Open AccessAdam M Morley, Richard Allen et al.ARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science…2026

    Cistercian abbeys are known for their complex, subterranean networks of pipes, drains and tunnels. While much of this infrastructure would have been for the transport of water, and removal of waste, tunnels could have been used for other purposes – including concealment, evasion or escape. In this paper, we showcase the use of remote sensing to detect linear and geometric subsurface features between the Cistercian abbey of Aunay in Normandy and L…

  • The Relationship Between Cognitive Offloading and the Transient Information Effect

    Open AccessOlivia Chen, Richard J Allen et al.ARTICLEEducational Psychology Review2026

    Within the Cognitive Load Theory framework, the transient information effect suggests that learning with transient information before learners can adequately process the information reduces performance, compared to learning information presented in a non-transient way. Cognitive offloading is a process whereby people externalise internal information onto the environment, making the information more accessible and so less transient, supporting tas…

  • The Indentured Archipelago

    Richard B Allen, Richard AllenARTICLEAgricultural History2023

    There is a pressing need in indentured labor studies for new approaches to examining and conceptualizing the nature and dynamics of the global migrant labor system that scattered some 2.2 million indentured Asian laborers, two-thirds of whom were Indians, throughout and beyond the colonial plantation world between the 1830s and 1920s. In this revised version of his dissertation, published as part of Cambridge University Press's Global South Asian…

  • Documenting Functional Use-Wear on Bone Tools

    Open AccessAbigail Desmond, Ian L CARTWRIGHT et al.ARTICLEJournal of Computer Applications…2021Cited by: 3References: 13

    Bone tools have a long archaeological history, and have recently been shown to retain use-traces distinctive of different perishable crafting practices. When examined in a controlled way, these diagnostic use-traces can serve as proxies for the crafted forms the bone tools were used to produce (e.g., baskets, leather goods, etc.). However, a number of methodological stumbling-blocks have hindered the sharing of bone tool use-wear results in a con…

  • Les vacances des sièges épiscopaux en Normandie ducale puis royale (XIe-XIIIe siècles)

    Richard Allen, Richard C AllenARTICLERevue belge de philologie et d…2019

    Unlike the episcopal vacancies of medieval England, those experienced by the dioceses of Normandy during the central Middle Ages have never been the subject of detailed study. This article, which is based on an initial survey of the available narrative, canonical and diplomatic sources, looks in part to fill this historiographical gap. It focuses on a handful of case studies, in particular the vacancy that took place in the diocese of Bayeux betw…

    Easter and Christmas are the most important events in the Christian calendar. Despite their global \nreach and cultural significance astonishingly little is known about the festivals’ genesis. Equally \nobscure is our understanding of the animals that have come to be associated with these celebrations \n– notably the Christmas Turkey and the Easter ‘Bunny’ (brown hare and the European rabbit). Like \nChristianity, none of these animals are native…

  • The use of close-range photogrammetry in zooarchaeology

    Open AccessAllowen Evin, Thibaud Souter et al.ARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science…2016Cited by: 17References: 19

    Close-range photographic techniques - including photogrammetry - are becoming common tools for constructing three-dimensional (3D) models of artifacts, particularly in archaeological research. Whether models obtained through photogrammetry can be used for zooarchaeological studies requires a systematic examination. In the context of research into dog domestication, we explore whether 3D models of wolf crania, obtained through a photogrammetric ap…

  • There Is Not One Realism, But Several Realisms”

    Richard Allen, Richard C AllenARTICLEOctober2014

    There was a period when André Bazin was considered by some to be a simplistic, naive thinker whose writings were only of historic interest. In 1974, Screen regular Colin MacCabe, in a widely influential article, characterized Bazin as “a theoretically naive empiricist, a kind of idiot of the family.” How times have changed. In a new essay, MacCabe writes that Bazin realized that cinema creates a “complicated series of relationships between camera…

  • Walking on Eggshells

    Open AccessJohn R M Stewart, John R Stewart et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2014Cited by: 3References: 22

    Eggshell is a potentially common archaeological resource, but it tends to be ignored. The recent development of ZooMS (zooarchaeology by mass spectrometry) as a rapid and robust system for taxonomic identification of preserved eggshell fragments has facilitated new insights into patterns of egg use in the past. This paper presents a case study of egg use at two sites in Anglo-Scandinavian York (Hungate and Coppergate). The results described below…

  • Adipocere Inside Nineteenth Century Femora

    Open AccessC Y Henderson, G A King et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2013References: 1

    Adipocere has, infrequently, been reported from archaeological contexts normally on the external surface of bodies. In contrast to those cases, this study focuses on a white, powdery and greasy substance found inside two right human femora during sampling. These samples were obtained from two identified individuals buried in the late 19th century, who were exhumed from a rock-cut and a brick-lined grave in a steeply sloping graveyard with wet soi…

  • The Sound of The Birds

    Richard Allen, Richard C AllenARTICLEOctober2013

    Having attacked people at a gas station, setting off a conflagration, birds begin to gather over Bodega Bay, accompanied by an electronic hum that sounds like the grinding of two large stones or perhaps like the wind. This electronic hum recurs at the film's conclusion, as we anxiously wait to see whether the Brenner family and Melanie Daniels (Tippi Hedren) will make their escape from their besieged homestead. Hitchcock himself described this el…

    Stable isotope analysis of human remains has been used to address long‐standing debates regarding the speed and degree to which the introduction of farming transformed diet. In Europe, this debate has centered on northern and Atlantic regions with much less attention devoted to the arrival of farming across the Mediterranean. This study presents carbon and nitrogen stable isotope analyses of collagen from 19 human and 37 faunal remains from eight…
