Fluctuating settlement patterns in Bronze Age Sutherland: Excavation of a roundhouse at Navidale, Helmsdale
Excavation of a well-preserved upstanding roundhouse revetted into a steep hillside at Navidale has revealed a structure with unusually sophisticated architectural traits dated to around 1400–1200 BC. The house was built within an agricultural landscape but its abandonment appears to have been linked to a cessation of agriculture within that landscape, possibly part of a wider environmental decline across northern Scotland
A Middle Bronze Age Round-house at Glanfeinion, near Llandinam, Powys
Small-scale rescue excavations during the course of pipeline construction have revealed a single Middle Bronze Age round-house, ring-ditch, and pits on a lowland site in the upper Severn valley with associated radiocarbon determinations which suggest a date within the range 1400–1170 cal BC. Associated finds include a large assemblage of charred naked barley and plain and decorated vessels of cordoned, bucket, and barrel urn traditions, together …
Excavations at the Sarn-y-bryn-caled cursus complex, Welshpool, Powys, and the timber circles of Great Britain and Ireland
Excavations between November 1990 and February 1992 have produced important information on the date and development of the Sarn-y-bryn-caled cursus complex between 3000–2000 BC. In particular a timber circle of 2000 BC, two penannular ring-ditches and a section across the cursus monument were excavated. A radiocarbon sequence has been obtained. The results of the excavations are described in Part I. Part II comprises a discussion of the forms, da…
Appendix V: Report on the Thin-Sections of Pottery and Clay from Sarn-Y-Bryn-Caled and Coed-Y-Dinas
Samples of fired clay (L595), Peterborough Ware (L596. LS97, L598) and Beaker pottery (L599-602) were submitted for examination. They were studied using a x20 binocular microscope and in thin-section. The thin-sections were prepared using Dickson’s Method of saining, which distinguishes various types of carbonaie, although in this case none of the samples contained calcareous inclusions. The dun sections were examined using a standardised procedu…
Migration Period Settlements and ‘Anglo-Saxon’ Pottery from Flanders
THIS PAPER presents a brief overview of recent excavations of Migration Period settlements in Flanders, a region from which few settlements of this period have previously been investigated. A discussion of the pottery from these sites follows, with special reference to chaff-tempered pottery which appears to be identical to that found in Anglo-Saxon England both in technique and petrology. The paper concludes with a review of the evidence for the…
Excavations on the Site of the Early Norman Castle at Gloucester, 1983–84
INVESTIGATIONS AT 28–32 Commercial Road, Gloucester, provide the first excavated evidence for the first Norman castle. Parts of the bailey surface and motte ditch were explored. Gullies, pits and post-holes attributable to the occupation and use of the castle were found in the bailey; one pit contained the remains of a tabula board with bone inlay and a complete set of counters. Sealed beneath the bailey surface were the remains of a substantial …
The Saxon and Medieval Pottery of London: A Review
A SERIES of large, datable pottery assemblages has been excavated in the City of London, principally from the Thames waterfront. The archaeological context of these groups and the methods used to date them are reviewed. With confirmatory evidence from elsewhere in the City, these groups provide a closely dated sequence which covers the 10th to the mid 15th centuries.Quantification of selected groups and petrological analysis have led to the isola…
Excavations at I Westgate Street, Gloucester, 1975
LIMITED excavation in Gloucester showed timber structures replacing stone in the late 4th century. The town centre was re-planned in the early 5th century, creating the line of medieval Westgate Street. Preserved organic levels of the 9th century indicate an agricultural economy with animal stabling in the town centre. 10th- to 12th-century levels were also excavated. Specialist reports are offered on Saxon and medieval pottery, seeds, textiles, …
