At the moment in church we are looking at the first book account of how God created the universe and everything of the Bible, Genesis. in it. The creation stories in Genesis are more pictures - or images. They are pictures of why God made the universe, Many people think that Science and the Bible (and the earth, life and human beings. particularly the creation) are in headlong conflict but in reality it’s not like that. At St Peter’s church we have three “In the beginning God, created the heavens and the earth”. very active and involved members who were, or are, – God creates the sea and the sky, the dry land – the plants teachers of Science who don’t hold their scientific and the animals. And God creates humankind.

    Notes and News

    Notes and News ARCHAEOLOGICAL NOTES The following discoveries in the district have been reported since the last volume of Oxoniensia was published: I. Alchester, Oxon. During November, 1944, a stretch of Langford Lane abutting on the N. side of the Roman town was widened by the County Council. A quantity of loose stone debris and a scattering of coarse pottery was revealed, but no traces of definite masonry or other constructions were visible. 2. Asthall, Oxon. Mr. Samuel Walker reported that in ploughing up a grass field immediately opposite the Swincombe turn on the Asthall-Burford road, and on the south side of the road, and thus close to the line of Akeman Street, large slabs (since determined as natural) were exposed. Near them were found Roman coins and pottery. Miss M. V. Taylor presented to the Ashmolean Museum an imperfect, decor­ ated Samian bowl of Dragendorff form 37 (A.M. 1943.59). 3. Benson, Oxon. See under Ewelme. 4. Bicester, Oxon. Private H. N. Chittick has collected sherds of mediaeval and later pottery, some evidently of 17th century date, around the foot of Gravenhill. 5. Brill, Bucks. From Muswell Hill Private Chittick has collected Roman sherds, including pieces of tile with incised linear pattern. 6. Brize }forton, Oxon. Mr. G. E. S. Turner presented to the Ashmolean Museum an iron blade (A.M. 1943.74) found in extending the aerodrome. The blade is not unlike some Middle Bronze Age tangless daggers, but no traces of rivets can be detected. Its date is doubtful. 7. Cassington, Oxon. Numerous fresh finds have been made in the prolific Smith's Pit II, immediately south of the cross-road of the Oxford northern by-pass.

  • Early Medieval Oxfordshire

    Early Medieval Oxfordshire

    Anglo-Saxon Oxfordshire Sally Crawford and Anne Dodd, December 2007 1. Introduction: nature of the evidence, history of research and the role of material culture Anglo-Saxon Oxfordshire has been extremely well served by archaeological research, not least because of coincidence of Oxfordshire’s diverse underlying geology and the presence of the University of Oxford. Successive generations of geologists at Oxford studied and analysed the landscape of Oxfordshire, and in so doing, laid the foundations for the new discipline of archaeology. As early as 1677, geologist Robert Plot had published his The Natural History of Oxfordshire ; William Smith (1769- 1839), who was born in Churchill, Oxfordshire, determined the law of superposition of strata, and in so doing formulated the principles of stratigraphy used by archaeologists and geologists alike; and William Buckland (1784-1856) conducted experimental archaeology on mammoth bones, and recognised the first human prehistoric skeleton. Antiquarian interest in Oxfordshire lead to a number of significant discoveries: John Akerman and Stephen Stone's researches in the gravels at Standlake recorded Anglo-Saxon graves, and Stone also recognised and plotted cropmarks in his local area from the back of his horse (Akerman and Stone 1858; Stone 1859; Brown 1973). Although Oxford did not have an undergraduate degree in Archaeology until the 1990s, the Oxford University Archaeological Society, originally the Oxford University Brass Rubbing Society, was founded in the 1890s, and was responsible for a large number of small but significant excavations in and around Oxfordshire as well as providing a training ground for many British archaeologists. Pioneering work in aerial photography was carried out on the Oxfordshire gravels by Major Allen in the 1930s, and Edwin Thurlow Leeds, based at the Ashmolean Museum, carried out excavations at Sutton Courtenay, identifying Anglo-Saxon settlement in the 1920s, and at Abingdon, identifying a major early Anglo-Saxon cemetery (Leeds 1923, 1927, 1947; Leeds 1936).
