  • The Perforated Spoons of Roman Britain

    Stephen Greep, Stephen J Greep et al.ARTICLEYorkshire Archaeological Journal2025

    Perforated spoons manufactured from animal bone have been recognised and discussed since the mid-nineteenth century. Geographically they are mainly found in Yorkshire and surrounding counties. Fifty percent of known finds come from caves in the Settle area occupied in the Roman period. Chronologically they appear to have been used principally from the late first to second centuries AD. They are a varied group of objects linked by their spoon-shap…

  • Spoon-Shaped Objects with Weapon Terminals from Western Britain

    Open AccessStephen GreepARTICLEBritannia2025

    A small group of late Roman ‘spoon-shaped’ objects with weapon terminals and a westerly distribution add to the growing evidence of ‘regionality’ in material culture within Roman Britain. While their function remains uncertain, the presence of weapon-shaped terminals can be seen alongside the increasing numbers of model objects recorded from the province

  • A Rare Bone Stylus from Jubilee Cave, Settle, Yorkshire

    Stephen Greep, Stephen J Greep et al.ARTICLEYorkshire Archaeological Journal2024

    The object under discussion was found during excavations in Jubilee Cave, Settle by local workers from 1935 to 38 (Allen 1994). Jubilee Cave is one of several caves in the Settle area sharing a dis

  • A Late Antique Decorated Casket and Jewellery from the Roman Villa at Fordham, Essex

    Open AccessStephen Greep, Martin Henig et al.ARTICLEBritannia2024

    During excavations of a Roman villa at Fordham, Essex, a remarkable series of decorated bone and antler veneer plaques were recovered from villa destruction deposits. They are datable to the later fourth or fifth centuries a.d . and probably once adorned a casket holding bathing equipment and jewellery. Spread through the three main rooms of the villa, fragments were recovered from at least 10 metres apart, so the object is likely already to have…

  • Excavations at Sabratha, 1948–1951

    Open AccessLindsay Allason‐Jones, Lindsay Allason-Jones et al.ARTICLELibyan Studies2023References: 14

    The small finds discovered during the 1948–1951 excavations by Katherine M. Kenyon and John B. Ward-Perkins at Sabratha were scattered after the 1950s and have taken some time to be re-assembled. The following report on the small objects includes material in silver, copper alloy, iron, lead, glass, semiprecious stones, clay and stone, with a separate report on the substantial bone artefact assemblage. As well as providing the basic data on the ob…

  • Bone Cylinders, Discs and Terminals-Scroll Holders From Roman Funerary Deposits

    Open AccessStephen Greep, Marloes RijkelijkhuizenARTICLECuadernos de Prehistoria y…2019

    Complete and fragmentary elements of well made, composite, bone objects have been excavated in funerary contexts from the Roman period in North-western Europe; our work suggests that these forms belong primarily to the mid second and earlier third centuries. Researchers have described different possible functions of these objects, but to date none have been entirely satisfactory. The assemblage consists of several lathe-turned bone elements —two …

  • Antler Roundel Pendants from Britain and the North-Western Roman Provinces

    Stephen GreepARTICLEBritannia1994

    Pendants are frequent finds on sites of the Roman period. 'Daily life was deeply penetrated, perhaps dominated, by supernatural considerations ... in consequence talismans are common'. They were used for a variety of purposes; not only individuals, but houses, walls and even towns could be protected by them. This short paper concentrates on one particular type of pendant, manufactured from the crown or burr of red deer antler which is found predo…

  • The Collfryn Hillslope Enclosure, Llansantffraid Deuddwr, Powys

    Open AccessWilliam Britnell, Jenny Britnell et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the Prehistoric…1989Cited by: 8References: 8

    The report on partial rescue excavations of the Collfryn enclosure between 1980–82 presents a summary of the first large-scale investigation of one of the numerous semi-defensive cropmark and earthwork enclosure sites in the upper Severn valley in mid-Wales. Earlier prehistoric activity of an ephemeral nature is represented by a scattering of Mesolithic and Late Neolithic or early Bronze Age flintwork, and by a pit containing sherds of several di…
