Le Pinacle, Jersey
Proactive Crisis-management Strategies and the Archaeological Heritage
Heritage organisations depend on public support, which presupposes a reputation for responsible custodianship, technical expertise, sound financial management and sensitivity to conflicting public expectations (e.g. conservation and public access). Public support, however, can be fickle; a reputation can be severely damaged in a few days as a result of an unexpected crisis. Heritage managers have traditionally adopted a reactive approach to crisi…
Islands in Time
Islands in Time explores the ecological and cultural development of prehistoric island societies. It considers the prehistory of the Mediterranean and offers an explanation of the effects of isolation on the development of human communities. Evidence is drawn from a broad range of Mediterranean islands including Cyprus, Crete and the Cyclades, Malta, Lipari, Corsica and Sardinia
La Hougue-Bie à Jersey
Le monument de La Hougue-Bie est un des plus grands dolmens à couloir en Europe, et l'un des mieux conservés. Bien que la sépulture mégalithique ait été découverte en 1924, les structures externes du cairn ne furent jamais explorées avant le projet de recherches qui a débuté en 1991. Le but principal des fouilles entreprises de 1991 à 1994 était de comprendre la structure et l'évolution du monument à l'époque néolithique. Ces fouilles, cependant,…
The phenomenology of the British Neolithic
Julian Thomas' published work since 1988 has been largely concerned with the integration of theory and practice. If there is now a general recognition that 'practice without theory is blind' (Shanks and Tilley 1987), Thomas counterbalances this with a welcome reminder that 'theory without practice is sterile'. In his words, this is an attempt to 'write about prehistory while at the same time meditating on what that writing involves
Premières données sur le cairn néolithique de La Hougue Bie à Grouville (Jersey)
The passage grave of La Hougue Bie, in Jersey, has been known since 1924. Excavations are currently in progress on the cairn of this monument, which has not previously been explored. The 1991 and 1992 excavation seasons have revealed the existence of two concentric walls, which seem to belong to two separate phases of Neolithic construction. The primary cairn had a diameter of 35 mètres, with a single wall, 9 mètres high. This cairn was later enl…
New light on Atlantic seaboard passage-grave chronology
A series of dates for La Hougue Bie, the Jersey passage-grave, shows its complex history of abandonment as well as construction. People were a long time leaving, as well as making, this sacred place
Neolithisation and Megalithic Origins in North‐western France
This article reviews recent publications on Neolithic and Megalithic origins in North‐Western France, and focuses on a debate within French archaeology between a ‘Parisian’ school, which emphasises the influence of Bandkeramik communities, and an ‘Atlantic’ school which emphasises contact along the Atlantic facade with Impressed Ware groups. It is argued that this debate is largely sterile, and an alternative model is proposed, stressing differen…
The Mesolithic of the Channel Islands
Results of recent surveys, combined with a re‐evaluation of lithic assemblages from earlier surface collections, suggest the existence of several Mesolithic sites in the Channel Islands. the lithic assemblages from these sites find parallels on the mainland of North‐Western France, suggesting that most of the Channel Island sites date to the ‘Middle Stage’Mesolithic (c 8500‐10,000 BP). the evidence for Mesolithic activity in the island is discuss…
Megalithic transport and territorial markers
Evidence from the Channel Islands supports the view that long-distance transport of megaliths in the European Neolithic cannot be substantiated. Analysis of the stones at La Hougue Bie, however, shows that megaliths were regularly moved over shorter distances, and suggests that the distribution of megalithic sites within a region cannot be explained simply as a function of the availability of building materials. This view modifies the purely mate…
Stone Axes of the Channel Islands
The petrology of stone axes found in the Channel Islands is examined. Recent research has resulted in the identification of an axe production centre at Le Pinacle, Jersey, and axes produced there have been recorded on Guernsey, Alderney and Sark. The Channel Island assemblages also include axes of Type A dolerite, flint, jadeite, eclogite and fibrolite, produced at known centres on the European mainland: together, these ‘exotic’ axes account for …
An Early Neolithic Axe Factory at Le Pinacle, Jersey, Channel Islands
The site of Le Pinacle, Jersey, is an important multi-phase site with horizons dating to the Early Neolithic, Chalcolithic, Bronze Age, Iron Age and Gallo-Roman periods. Recent reassessment of the material from the site suggests the existence of a stone axe production centre at Le Pinacle during the Early Neolithic period. Petrological studies have resulted in the identification of a group of dolerite axes, for which Le Pinacle is the probable so…

General Pitt-Rivers, Captain Lukis and Channel Island prehistory
Many of the provenances of material in the great 19th-century collections have been lost. Here is one re-discovered, with the artifacts to which it relates
