  • The Stones of Cumbria
    The Stones of Cumbria by Amy R. Miller A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Amy R. Miller 2012 The Stones of Cumbria Amy R. Miller Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto 2012 Abstract Gosforth, in the English province of Cumbria, is home to a group of tenth-century sculptures that are among the most intricate and best-preserved examples of Anglo-Scandinavian monumental stone carving. These sculptures are essential for appreciating the complex and rich culture that developed in the late first millennium in northern England. This thesis offers a detailed analysis of the Gosforth sculptural group through multiple facets of its construction, design, and location to gain a broader understanding of the role of public sculpture in the unsettled but dynamic regions of Viking England. The complexity of Anglo-Scandinavian sculpture is examined first through an archaeological and material reassessment that reveals the method of the monuments’ construction and further supports the attribution for most of the sculptures to a single artist, whose craftsmanship, composition, and style match works across northern England, several of which were previously unattributed to him. This corpus expands our understanding of at least one professional early medieval artist and enables us to refine the general timeline of sculptural production in England. This artist sculpted in support of a new Anglo-Scandinavian elite, who adopted the local practice of ornamenting carved crosses but consciously adapted the ii iconography to reflect and reaffirm their otherness. By referencing one another, the sculptures forged and reflected the complex process of mutual acculturation and competition among communities and served as fixed spatial and mental foci in the Viking Age settlement of northern England.

  • The Stones of Stenness, Orkney by J N Graham Ritchie with an Account of the Stone of Odin by Ernest W Marwick
    The Stones of Stenness, Orkney by J N Graham Ritchie with an account of the Stone of Odin by Ernest W Marwick INTRODUCTION The central bowl of West Mainland Orkney, encircled by low rolling hills, encloses the adjoining Lochs of Harray and Stenness; separated by the promontories of Stenness to the SE and Brodgar to the NW, the lochs meet only at the Bridge of Brodgar which spans the narrows and links two of the most important assemblages of prehistoric monuments in Britain (fig 1). To the NW are the ditched cairn of the Ring of Bookan (ORK 45), the class II henge monument known as the Ring of Brodgar, a large number of mounds and several standing stones; to the SE are the class I henge monument of the Stones of Stenness, a series of standing stones and, 1-2 km to the E, the magnificent chambered tomb of Macs Howe (ORK 36). The Standing Stones of Stenness (NGR HY 307125) dominate the W side of the SE promontory and are situated in a level arable field close to the shore at a height of about 4-0 m OD (pis 3a and 4a). Two existing outlying stones, the Watch Stone and the Barnhouse Stone, may be associated with the monument, the former 170 m to the NNW and the latter 700 m to the SE (pi 3b and d; RCAMS 1946, 304-5, nos 879 and 880). The stump of another standing stone, situated about 12-8 m SSW of the Watch Stone, was discovered in 1930 but is no longer visible; measuring 1-4 m by 0-13 m and at least 0-9 m in height, 'it had rested in a hole which had been cut in the shaly rock to receive it, and it was packed at the base with small stones' (RCAMS 1946, 320, no.

This book is available direct from Archaeopress or from our website www.archaeopress.com Abstract This analysis considers cues for axial alignment, and proposes a unified basis for interpretation amongst major groups of monument of Neolithic to earlier Bronze Age date from the British Isles: chambered tombs, timber longhouses, augmented long barrows, cursus monuments, stone rows, stone circles, standing stones, henges, pit alignments, rock art sites, linear round barrow cemeteries, and a suggested class of hypermonuments. Additional area-studies are presented for: Stenness (Orkney), Sligo (Ireland), Stanton Drew megalithic complex (Somerset, SW’n England), Wye-Usk area (W’n England, E’n Wales), and Brittany. Evidence for solar symbolism is discussed for the period in question, and existence of a widespread and active agrarian-solar cult is proposed. Climatic deterioration over the Atlantic margins and its pressure on the agrarian economy is suggested as the cause for widespread proliferation and elaboration of strongly axial sites with potential solar links, such as stone rows, as also seen for certain solar-related motifs of rock-art.
