  • Lithics, Landscape and People: Life Beyond the Monuments in Prehistoric Guernsey
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON FACULTY OF HUMANITIES Department of Archaeology Lithics, Landscape and People: Life Beyond the Monuments in Prehistoric Guernsey by Donovan William Hawley Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April 2017 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF HUMANITIES Archaeology Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Lithics, Landscape and People: Life Beyond the Monuments in Prehistoric Guernsey Donovan William Hawley Although prehistoric megalithic monuments dominate the landscape of Guernsey, these have yielded little information concerning the Mesolithic, Neolithic and Early Bronze Age communities who inhabited the island in a broader landscape and maritime context. For this thesis it was therefore considered timely to explore the alternative material culture resource of worked flint and stone archived in the Guernsey museum. Largely ignored in previous archaeological narratives on the island or considered as unreliable data, the argument made in this thesis is for lithics being an ideal resource that, when correctly interrogated, can inform us of past people’s actions in the landscape. In order to maximise the amount of obtainable data, the lithics were subjected to a wide ranging multi-method approach encompassing all stages of the châine opératoire from material acquisition to discard, along with a consideration of the landscape context from which the material was recovered. The methodology also incorporated the extensive corpus of lithic knowledge that has been built up on the adjacent French mainland, a resource largely passed over in previous Channel Island research. By employing this approach, previously unknown patterns of human occupation and activity on the island, and the extent and temporality of maritime connectivity between Guernsey and mainland areas has been revealed.

  • The Chambered Tumulus at Heston Brake, Monmouthshire
    Clifton Antiquarian Club. Volume 2 Pages 66-68 The Chambered Tumulus at Heston Brake, Monmouthshire By the REV WILLIAM BAGNALL-OAKELEY, M.A. (Read August 22nd 1888.)a In Ormerod’s Strigulensia this spot is described as the Rough Grounds, in which is a mound called Heston Brake, raised artificially on the edge of a dingle, and having a seeming elevation very much increased by natural slopes toward the North-east. This mound has a flat summit and commands a view of the Severn towards Aust; it is covered with a venerable shade of oaks and yew trees. In the centre of the summit is a space about 27ft- long by 9ft, wide, surrounded originally by thirteen rude and upright stones, now time-worn, mossed over, and matted with ivy. One is at the East-end, two at the West, and three remain at each side with spaces for the four which have been removed. It has been suggested that this is a sepulchral memorial in connection with the massacre of Harold's servants by Caradoc, in 1065, but I think we may dismiss this idea and consider its erection at a much earlier date. The mound now presents a very different appearance to what it did when Mr. Ormerod’s description was written, but as we are about to open the Chamber you will I hope have an opportunity of forming your own opinion on the subject. The Chamber is erected on a natural mound, increased by the mound of earth which originally covered the stones; elevated sites were generally chosen for these memorials of the dead in order that they might be seen from afar.

  • The Megalithic Remains at Stanton Drew
    Clifton Antiquarian Club . Volume 1 Pages 14-17 The Megalithic Remains at Stanton Drew BY THE REV. H. T. PERFECT, M. A. (Read at Stanton Drew, May 28 th , 1884.) STANTON DREW, as well as Stonehenge and Avebury, is situated in the district which is known to have been occupied by the Belgae. There is a hamlet in this parish variously written as Belgetown, Belluton, or Belton, which evidently took its name from the Belgae of this district. The final syllable “ton," which is Saxon, would seem to point to the transitional period when Belgae and Saxons were contending together for the possession of the soil, at the time when this town or homestead was still an important settlement. The very name of Belge-town, the close proximity of the stone circles and the fortified camp of the Maes Knoll, seem to bespeak this immediate locality as one of the greatest importance in early Celtic days, and offer a pleasing temptation to group these three points together as collective evidence that the locality of Stanton Drew was one of the leading centres of Celtic life in England amongst the Belgae, or even centuries earlier amongst their predecessors. However this may be, the so-called druidical remains in this parish consist of one large circle adjoining a smaller one, with apparently the remains of an avenue connecting the two together. Several of the stones, both in the large circle as well as in the avenue, are missing, having been broken up in olden days when these monuments were not so carefully preserved as they now are.

Leigh Woods, North Somerset Fig 1 Reproduced as a Section from the Stokeleigh OS Map 2005 1:2500 Courtesy of the National Trust (Wessex Region), Leigh Woods Office, Bristol Nigel B.Bain MA, BD May 2009 There is an extensive number of diverse hillforts scattered across the West of England. The phased National Mapping Programme is currently pinpointing even more of these. Stokeleigh is the classic example of one type of hillfort construction popular during the first millennium BC, a ‘promontory’ fort. It is particularly significant in that its sturdy defences are still fairly well-preserved. What is even more remarkable about this impressive site is not only that it remains relatively unscathed 1 of 18 11/09/2020, 12:46 Stoke Leigh Iron Age Camp Leigh Woods, North Somerset file:///D:/Users/Ruth/Documents/PC Website/new test site/Articles by ... but that so little is known or has been written about it. As a result, the National Trust in collaboration with English Heritage and Natural England has recently taken the welcome decision to restore its original profile*. Particular credit must go to Mr Bill Morris, Head Warden at the NT Office in Leigh Woods and his team, for the tremendous work done in clearing the camp of its overgrowth, not to mention his own support for this project. It has been a pleasure to watch the site ‘unfold’. It has made possible the kind of accompanying photographic evidence here as never before.

  • AMS 14C Dating and Stable Isotope Analysis of an Earlier Neolithic
    Proc. Univ. Bristol Spelaeol. Soc., 2013, 26 (1), 9-26 AMS 14C DATING AND STABLE ISOTOPE (CARBON, NITROGEN) ANALYSIS OF AN EARLIER NEOLITHIC HUMAN SKELETAL ASSEMBLAGE FROM HAY WOOD CAVE, MENDIP, SOMERSET by RICK J. SCHULTING, MARGARET CHAPMAN and E. JOHN CHAPMAN ABSTRACT The results of an AMS dating programme presented here confirm the attribution of much (and quite likely all) of a large assemblage of human remains from Hay Wood Cave to the earlier Neolithic period. The use of the cave for burial is modelled as commencing in the period 3930-3715 BC and ending 3580-3350 BC (95.4% confidence). While the majority of the 10 dated individuals centre on 3600–3500 cal BC, two are significantly earlier, and indeed represent the earliest directly dated Neolithic individuals from Mendip. Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope data indicate a predominantly terrestrial diet, despite the proximity of the coast, less than 3 km distant. This is consistent with other results from Mendip, and from Britain overall, and provides further support for a rapid and relatively complete dietary transition between the Mesolithic and Neolithic. An intriguing question is what lay behind the decision to place human remains in either a cave or a monument. INTRODUCTION Hay Wood is a limestone cave located on the western edge of the Mendip Hills, Somerset (Figure 1). Excavations by the Axbridge Caving Group and Archaeological Society beginning in 1957 and running until 1971 yielded a large assemblage of human remains (Everton and Everton, 1972). The dating of this assemblage was uncertain, since the artefactual material recovered from the cave deposits included Mesolithic microliths, and Iron Age and Roman-British pottery.

Woodbridge: Boydell and Brewer, pp. 1-34. http://www.boydellandbrewer.com/store/viewItem.asp?idProduct=14947 Introduction: Stones in Substance, Space and Time Howard Williams, Joanne Kirton & Meggen Gondek A triad of research themes – materiality, biography and landscape – provide the distinctive foci and parameters of the contributions to this book. The chapters explore a range of early medieval inscribed and sculpted stone monuments from Ireland (Ní Ghrádaigh and O’Leary), Britain (Gondek, Hall, Kirton and Williams) and Scandinavia (Back Danielsson and Crouwers). The chapters together show how these themes enrich and expand the interdisciplinary study of early medieval stone monuments, in particular revealing how a range of different inscribed and sculpted stones were central to the creation and recreation of identities and memories for early medieval individuals, families, households, religious and secular communities and kingdoms. Many narratives can be created about early medieval stone monuments (e.g. Hawkes 2003a; Orton and Wood 2007).
