All of the graves were dug graves and from some of these only very scant and poorly preserved skeletal remains were recovered. All of the archaeological features had been heavily truncated due to many years of ploughing in this agriculturally rich area. Introduction As part of the University of Glasgow Archaeology Department’s Strathearn Environs and Royal Forteviot (SERF) project a barrow cemetery immediately to the south of Forteviot village, previously revealed in aerial photographs, was investigated. The excavation took place between September 12th and the 22nd, 2007 and was undertaken by small team of undergraduate students of the University of Glasgow, supervised by professional archaeologists.

    From Apprentice to Journeyman to Partner: Benjamin Franklin's Workers and the Growth of the Early American Printing Trade

    From Apprentice to Journeyman to Partner: Benjamin Franklin's Workers and the Growth of the Early American Printing Trade The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne. —Geoffrey Chaucer, "The Parliament of Fowls" ANY APPRENTICES IN THE EARLY American printing trade must have felt as Chaucer's fabled craftsman did. Beginning M at a young age, they commonly spent up to seven years as contractually bound, unpaid laborers. They usually had to promise not to gamble, fornicate, frequent taverns, marry, and buy or sell or divulge secrets of the business. Apprentices worked long hours, often performed menial tasks, and were subjected to beatings—all without pay. Yet apprentices endured the arduous existence because it held for them the promise of eventual self-employment. Their goal was to learn a craft they could practice when their apprenticeship expired.1 The apprenticeship system was essential to the growth of the early American press. Apprenticeships to printers were a means of vocational education that replenished and augmented the craft's practitioners, thus insuring a sufficient supply of skilled labor through which the "art" (special skill) and the "mystery" (special knowledge) of printing 1 For an example of the apprentice's obligations, see Samuel Richardson, The Apprentice's Vade Mecum (1734j reprint ed., Los Angeles, 1975), 2-20. On the menial nature of some tasks, see O. Jocelyn Dunlop and Richard D. Denman, English Apprenticeship and Child Labour: A History (London, 1912), 19-20; Sharon V. Salinger, "To Serve Well and Faithfully": Labor and Indentured Servants in Pennsylvania, 1682-1800 (Cambridge, 1987), 7.

It holds one of the country’s densest concentrations of early prehistoric ceremonial monuments, as well as being at the centre of the development of the early Scottish kingdom. Forteviot is documented as the site of the ninth-century ‘palacium’ of Cináed son of Alpín (Kenneth MacAlpin), one of the first kings of a united Scotland, who died there in AD 858. The site remained an important royal centre until the 12th century, though it diminished in importance in relation to the nearby royal inauguration site at Scone (Duncan 2003; Driscoll 2004). The 9th century was a pivotal period in Scottish history, as the Gaelic west and Pictish east coalesced into the newly-imagined kingdom of Alba (Scotland) (Broun 2005; Woolf 2007), so the siting of a royal palace there is of great significance to understanding the process of kingdom formation.

The iron bells of Ireland, Scotland and Wales form a homogeneous group and are not readily distinguishable, while those of bronze have a tendency to regional variation. Fourteen iron bells and five of bronze make up the Scottish total. This disproportion has been noted in Ireland where the corresponding figures are 44 and 31 respectively. The iron bells of Scotland have a greater size range (exclusive of handles) than those of either Irelan Walesr do smallese Th . t specimen, that fro Broce mth Burrianf ho m mera m s i ,0 e6 tall, while the largest bell, that from Birnie, Morayshire, is 326 mm tall.
