Parish Church of St Peter, South Weald PARISH PROFILE
Parish Church of St Peter, South Weald PARISH PROFILE SEPTEMBER 2015 Our Church St Peter’s Church is in the village of South Weald on the outskirts of Brentwood, to the east of the M25 and the London Borough of Havering. It is a lively and flourishing church with a congregation encompassing all ages. Our services are middle of the road but there is a wide range of churchmanship within the congregation and our doors are open to all. More than half of the Electoral Roll live outside the parish. Our Voluntary Aided Primary School in the village has been rated as outstanding in all respects. We are fortunate to have a vibrant and diverse congregation, including a large number of young families. While many start to attend church in order to meet attendance criteria for admission to local church schools, our welcoming and accepting attitude means that a number become committed members of the congregation. Our challenge is to respect the needs of our long-standing members whilst engaging with newcomers. St Peter’s Rule of Life As followers of Christ, we aim: to attend worship regularly, including Holy Communion; to maintain a pattern of daily prayer and develop our spiritual lives; to read and study the Bible; to help grow the church community through our time, talents and money; to assist others and to serve the needs of the local community; to have a concern for the whole world and to work for the coming of God’s kingdom; 1 to share our faith through action and word. -
Human Remains, Museum Space and the 'Poetics of Exhibiting'
23 — VOLUME 10 2018 UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS JOURNAL Human remains, museum space and the ‘poetics of exhibiting’ Kali Tzortzi Abstract The paper explores the role of the design of museum space in the chal- lenges set by the display of human remains. Against the background of ‘embodied understanding’, ‘multisensory learning’ and ‘affective distance’ and of contextual case studies, it analyses the innovative spa- tial approach of the Moesgaard Museum of the University of Aarhus, which, it argues, humanizes bog bodies and renders them an integra- tive part of an experiential, embodied and sensory narrative. This allows the mapping of spatial shifts and new forms of engagement with human remains, and also demonstrates the role of university museums as spaces for innovation and experimentation. 24 — VOLUME 10 2018 UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS JOURNAL Introduction and research question This paper aims to explore the issue of the respectful presentation of human physical remains in contextual exhibitions by looking at the role of museum space in the challenges set by their display, with particular reference to the contribution of experimentation in the university museum environ- ment. The debate raised by the understanding that human remains “are not just another artefact” (stated by CASSMAN et al. 2007, in GIESEN 2013, 1) is extensively discussed in the literature, and increasingly explored through a range of museum practices. In terms of theoretical understanding, authors have sought to acquire an overall picture of approaches towards the care of human remains so as to better understand the challenges raised. For example, among the most recent publica- tions, O’Donnabhain and Lozada (2014) examine the global diversity of attitudes to archaeological human remains and the variety of approaches to their study and curation in different countries. -
AVAS Newsletter 2016
AVON VALLEY ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY NEWSLETTER December 2016 Editorial This year is a swan song for me as this twelfth edition of the Newsletter will be my last one. I feel that I have had a good innings and that it is time to pass baton on to someone who will bring a fresh vision to the task. As I stated last year there is a distinct move away from excavation work in archaeology and this trend is continuing, but our work with resistivity techniques to do non-invasive searches, supplemented by the use of Magnetometry, using some equipment borrowed from Bournemouth University has proved a revelation. For those who wish to know more and see some of the results, then attendance at our Members Evening in January is a must! We really are discovering more and disturb less! My last edition of our newsletter, like a number of previous copies is taking in some practical archaeological topics and attempting to stimulate members to seek out even more interesting places based upon the travels of a number of our members. Our blog site continues to flourishing. So once again, our thanks go to Mike Gill for his continuing work in keeping the news of activities and plans of AVAS available to our members and the general public at large. So let us all support them with any useful news or other input that we, as members, might come up with. N.B. The address on the web for our blogsite is at the bottom of this page. I hope that this edition of the Newsletter will be both stimulating and entertaining and wish you all great year of archaeology in 2017. -
The Wisbech Standard 26/06/11 Fenland District Archaeological
The Wisbech Standard 26/06/11 Fenland District Archaeological Planning - A Response to Councillor Melton We the undersigned consider to be shocking and potentially disastrous the recent declaration by Councillor Alan Melton (reported in the Cambs Times and Wisbech Standard) that, as of July 1st, the Fenland District Council will no longer apply archaeological planning condition. His speech to the Fenland Council Building and Design Awards ceremony at Wisbech noted the safeguarding of natural and aesthetic concerns, but made no mention of heritage aside from: “in local known historical areas, such as next to a 1000 year old church…. Common sense will prevail! The bunny huggers won't like this, but if they wish to inspect a site, they can do it when the footings are being dug out”. If Fenland District Council proceed with these plans, not only will it find itself contravening national planning guidelines and existing cultural and heritage statute and case law, it is likely any development will be open to legal challenges that will involve the Council (and by extension its rate-payers) in major financial costs and cause prospective developers serious delays, if not worse. All these factors run counter to Councillor Melton’s arguments and he will place Fenland District Council at a considerable financial risk. Rather than, as claimed, being an impediment to local development, development-related archaeology is a highly professional field and the vast majority of such excavations within England occur without any delay or redesign consequences to subsequent building programmes. Indeed, not only is archaeological fieldwork a source of graduate employment, but also now significantly contributes to the local rural economy (plant hire, tourism etc.). -

Dynamics of Religious Ritual: Migration and Adaptation in Early Medieval Britain
Dynamics of Religious Ritual: Migration and Adaptation in Early Medieval Britain A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Brooke Elizabeth Creager IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Peter S. Wells August 2019 Brooke Elizabeth Creager 2019 © For my Mom, I could never have done this without you. And for my Grandfather, thank you for showing me the world and never letting me doubt I can do anything. Thank you. i Abstract: How do migrations impact religious practice? In early Anglo-Saxon England, the practice of post-Roman Christianity adapted after the Anglo-Saxon migration. The contemporary texts all agree that Christianity continued to be practiced into the fifth and sixth centuries but the archaeological record reflects a predominantly Anglo-Saxon culture. My research compiles the evidence for post-Roman Christian practice on the east coast of England from cemeteries and Roman churches to determine the extent of religious change after the migration. Using the case study of post-Roman religion, the themes religion, migration, and the role of the individual are used to determine how a minority religion is practiced during periods of change within a new culturally dominant society. ii Table of Contents Abstract …………………………………………………………………………………...ii List of Figures ……………………………………………………………………………iv Preface …………………………………………………………………………………….1 I.

His death in that conflict meant that this was a career that lasted barely twenty years; however it comprised a large range of creative endeavours. Although all these facets of Whistler’s career are touched upon, the main focus is on his work in murals and the fields of advertising and commercial design. The thesis goes beyond the remit of a purely biographical stance and places Whistler’s career in context by looking at the contemporary art world in which he worked, and the private, commercial and public commissions he secured. In doing so, it aims to provide a more comprehensive account of Whistler’s achievement than has been afforded in any of the existing literature or biographies. This deeper examination of the artist’s practice has been made possible by considerable amounts of new factual information derived from the Whistler Archive and other archival sources. -
A CRITICAL EVALUATION of the LOWER-MIDDLE PALAEOLITHIC ARCHAEOLOGICAL RECORD of the CHALK UPLANDS of NORTHWEST EUROPE Lesley
A CRITICAL EVALUATION OF THE LOWER-MIDDLE PALAEOLITHIC ARCHAEOLOGICAL RECORD OF THE CHALK UPLANDS OF NORTHWEST EUROPE The Chilterns, Pegsdon, Bedfordshire (photograph L. Blundell) Lesley Blundell UCL Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD September 2019 2 I, Lesley Blundell, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed: 3 4 Abstract Our understanding of early human behaviour has always been and continues to be predicated on an archaeological record unevenly distributed in space and time. More than 80% of British Lower-Middle Palaeolithic findspots were discovered during the late 19th/early 20th centuries, the majority from lowland fluvial contexts. Within the British planning process and some academic research, the resultant findspot distributions are taken at face value, with insufficient consideration of possible bias resulting from variables operating on their creation. This leads to areas of landscape outside the river valleys being considered to have only limited archaeological potential. This thesis was conceived as an attempt to analyse the findspot data of the Lower-Middle Palaeolithic record of the Chalk uplands of southeast Britain and northern France within a framework complex enough to allow bias in the formation of findspot distribution patterns and artefact preservation/discovery opportunities to be identified and scrutinised more closely. Taking a dynamic, landscape = record approach, this research explores the potential influence of geomorphology, 19th/early 20th century industrialisation and antiquarian collecting on the creation of the Lower- Middle Palaeolithic record through the opportunities created for artefact preservation and release. -

But if we set aside these stories, do we really know what happened when, and why it's so important? Which came first, the Bronze Age or the Stone Age? Why did the Romans play such a significant role in our past? And how did a nation as small as Britain come to command such a vast empire? Here, Tim Taylor and the team of expert historians behind Channel 4's Time Team, answer these questions and many more, cataloguing British history in a way that is accessible to all. -

A comparative study. by Hannah Louise Fluck Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2011 1 2 Abstract This thesis presents the results of an investigation into the Clactonian assemblages of Middle Pleistocene souther Britain. By exploring other non-biface assemblages (NBAs) reported from elsewhere in Europe it seeks to illuminate our understanding of the British assemblages by viewing them in a wider context. It sets out how the historical and geopolitical context of Palaeolithic research has influenced what is investigated and how, as well as interpretations of assemblages without handaxes. A comparative study of the assemblages themselves based upon primary data gathered specifically for that purpose concludes that while there are a number of non-biface assemblages elsewhere in Europe the Clactonian assemblages do appear to be a phenomenon unique to the Thames Valley in early MIS 11.
