The Sheep Project (3)
The largest published dataset of sheep ( Ovis aries ) cheek tooth wear recorded from known‐age skeletonized mandibles is presented, with raw data disseminated as a supplement. The dataset has previously been used to investigate the influence of sex, nutrition, and breeding status on dental maturation (eruption and wear of individual teeth). Here, complemented by published tooth wear datasets from the same breed, it is employed to supplement imple…
A possible case of hypertrophic osteopathy in osteological remains representing cattle hide processing from a Roman villa in England
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the likelihood that pathological features noted on cattle bones indicate that the animal suffered hypertrophic osteopathy. MATERIALS: Cattle bones, mostly from the lower extremities, representing a single individual, recovered from a Romano-British villa (4th century CE). METHODS: The remains were subject to macroscopic, low-power microscopic, radiographic and μCT study, as well as biomolecular analysis for M. tuberculosis …
Digitally Enlightened or Still in the Dark? Establishing a Sector-Wide Approach to Enhancing Data Synthesis and Research Potential in British Environmental Archaeology and Beyond
In a 2019 Internet Archaeology article, Elizabeth Pearson posed the question 'are we back in the Dark Ages?'. This question was made in reference to a developer-funded archaeology sector that was generating vast quantities of evidence and, particularly, in recent years, specialist environmental data, but was failing to mobilise this in a theoretical framework that generated meaningful advancement in terms of research. The introduction to the 2021…

The Archaeology of Human-Bird Interactions
Curation of the Historic England Zooarchaeology Reference Collection
The Historic England Zooarchaeology Reference Collection includes more than 3470 mammal, bird, amphibian, reptile and fish specimens, the majority of which are complete skeletons. It comprises important research collections that support internal, national and international projects, and is being continuously developed, mainly through in-house specimen preparation. The collection is housed in different locations at Fort Cumberland, an eighteenth-c…
Middle Neolithic pits and a burial at West Amesbury, Wiltshire
Excavations on the south-eastern slopes of King Barrow Ridge, 1.5 km east of Stonehenge, revealed five pits, a grave and other features of Middle Neolithic date. Analysis of the pit assemblages and the partial inhumation interred in the grave has provided insights into lifeways in this landscape in the late fourth millennium cal BC. Evidence suggests that the area was visited by a pastoralist, mobile community on a semi-regular basis for a signif…
Understanding Middle Neolithic food and farming in and around the Stonehenge World Heritage Site
Little synthesis of evidence for Middle Neolithic food and farming in Wiltshire, particularly in and around the Stonehenge World Heritage Site (WHS) has been possible, until now, due to a paucity of assemblages. The excavation of a cluster of five Middle Neolithic pits and an inhumation burial at West Amesbury Farm (WAF) has prompted a review of our understanding of pit sites of this period from the county. Bioarchaeological assemblages are used …
Recent Investigations at Two Long Barrows and Reflections on their Context in the Stonehenge World Heritage Site and Environs
Recent geophysical surveys and excavations at Druid's Lodge Estate, in fields west of the Diamond Wood in the Stonehenge World Heritage Site (SWHS), have confirmed the existence of the Winterbourne Stoke 71 long barrow and discovered a new long barrow (Winterbourne Stoke 86) a short distance to the south. Survey and excavation show internal features at both barrows and, alongside aerial photography, suggest that both monuments were destroyed duri…
Wild to domestic and back again
This paper presents the results of the first comprehensive scientific study of the fallow deer, a non-native species whose medieval-period introduction to Britain transformed the cultural landscape. It brings together data from traditional zooarchaeological analyses with those derived from new ageing techniques as well as the results of a programme of radiocarbon dating, multi-element isotope studies and genetic analyses. These new data are here …
The Sheep Project (2)
The skeletons of 356 unimproved Shetland sheep from flocks kept at two nutritional levels are used to investigate the effects of nutritional level on the timing of mandibular dental eruption, and of wear in the mandibular fourth premolar and molars; comparisons are also made between entire and early-castrated males and between unbred, early-bred and late-bred ewes. Sheep weights and counts of permanent anterior teeth recorded during life are also…

Excavations at the Viking Barrow Cemetery at Heath Wood, Ingleby, Derbyshire
The cemetery at Heath Wood, Ingleby, Derbyshire, is the only known Scandinavian cremation cemetery in the British Isles. It comprises fifty-nine barrows, of which about one-third have been excavated on previous occasions, although earlier excavators concluded that some were empty cenotaph mounds. From 1998 to 2000 three barrows were examined. Our investigations have suggested that each of the barrows contained a burial, although not all contain e…
