Names and Archaeology
Names, particularly place- and field-names, carry vital information for the archaeologist. In their turn, archaeologists can offer vital context for understanding past naming practices. Just as names can be used to locate sites of archaeological interest, so examination of the material culture, form, function, and status of named places can help to establish when and why they were so named. Acknowledging the similarities implicit in onomastic and…

Towards an explanation of phonetic differentiation in masculine and feminine personal names
Recent research has identified characteristic differences between the phonetic structures of names and of ordinary nouns, with particularly distinctive patterns being exhibited by feminine personal names. No explanation has yet been found. This paper suggests that the solution lies not in the English sound system, as has previously been assumed, but in differences between the linguistic origins of the various types of material
Deer in Sussex Place-Names
Recent evidence for fallow deer at the first-century AD Roman palace at Fishbourne, Sussex, is supported by place-names identifying a nearby deer park and testifying to the presence of fallow deer in Anglo-Saxon Sussex
Place-name evidence for an Anglo-Saxon animal name
It is well known that the extant corpus of Old English literature preserves only a proportion of the vocabulary that once existed. In some instances, terms for concepts that must have been familiar to the Anglo-Saxons have been lost without trace; in others, they may be reconstructed from non-literary forms of evidence such as the place-names coined by early settlers in the areas now known as England and southern Scotland. The main dictionary of …

The early Kentish ‘divorce laws’
Evidence concerning the position of women in Anglo-Saxon England, particularly during the early period, is sparse and often difficult to assess. Surviving law-codes constitute an important source of information, but due to their cryptic phraseology and sometimes archaic vocabulary they are notoriously open to misinterpretation. Two clauses from the earliest extant code, issued by King Æthelberht of Kent towards the beginning of the seventh centur…

A Database for English Placenames
A five-year project begun in 1992 at the Centre for English Name Studies, University of Nottingham, aims to create a computerized database for the study of English placenames, incorporating materials from the published volumes of the English Place-Name Survey as a research tool for scholars in a number of disciplines. The database can be searched in a variety of ways, lending flexibility and creativity to the investigation of English placenames p…

The Trumpeters of Bemersyde
The placename Bemersyde in the Scottish county of Berwickshire is usually explained as “hillside or seat of the trumpeter,” from the Old English words bēmere “trumpeter” and sīde “hillside” or “seat.” This would represent an unusual type of formation, and the absence of references to trumpeters in historical or documentary sources casts further doubt on the interpretation. Linguistic evidence indicates that bēmere may have developed a transferred…

Notes on Some Scottish Field Names
A number offield names identified during the 1940s in surveys of the place names of southeast Scotland could not at that time convincingly be explained. Some, however, have doublets or close parallels in England, where major advances have been made in the understanding of minor toponyms during the last half century. As Field (1989, 31) comments, “the repertoire of names is remarkably similar across national frontiers;” this means that comparative…
