  • Roman York Special Edition
    ROMAN YORK By Patrick Ottaway Published by Tempus / The History Press 2004 (ISBN 978 07524 29168) This is a special edition of the Preface, Chapter 1 and Reading List available free on the web from www.pjoarchaeology.co.uk © Patrick Ottaway 1993, 2004, 2009 Roman York , with full text and illustrations, is available from the History Press (www.thehistorypress.co.uk ) Preface to the Second Edition In the first edition of this book, published in 1993, I wrote that it was both a good time and a bad time to produce a book on Roman York. It was a good time because public and academic interest in the subject had probably never been greater, but a bad time, partly, at least, because research on most of the major archaeological excavations of what were then the previous twenty years or so was still in progress. On preparing this second edition some ten years later I felt the auguries were much more favourable because a good deal, although by no means all, of that research has been completed. For example, the great campaign of excavations under York Minster (1967-72), in which the legionary fortress headquarters and first cohort barracks were revealed, was published in 1995 by Derek Philips and Brenda Heywood. My own volume on the fortress defences ( Archaeology of York 3/3) appeared in 1996 and we also have Jason Monaghan’s wide-ranging survey of Roman pottery from York ( Archaeology of York 16/8), published in 1997, which has made available a vast body of data relating to ceramic production and trade in Eboracum , and has also allowed the critical re-evaluation of archaeological dating for the period.

  • Comb Making Industry in York During the 19Th Century
    Comb making industry in York during the 19th century An Insight Report By Zoe Durrant-Walker ©York Archaeological Trust for Excavation and Research 1. The making of combs The comb making industry in the nineteenth century involved the cutting of horn material and shaping it into a comb. The process from start to finished object would take approximately two months for white horn, three months for buffalo and four months for a tortoiseshell style comb. Horn was also used by bookbinders to cover manuscripts and some horn was turned into low quality crockery. 2. Who could trade in the city of York? In 1415 the horn works joined with the cutlers, blade smiths, sheathers, scalers and buckle makers to perform a mystery play (L.T Smith. York Plays performed by the Crafts or Mysteries of York 1885 p. xxiii). Comb making was recognised as a craft when the formation of the Livery Company of Comb Makers was given its charter in 1635. To be allowed to sell goods in the city of York the purveyor had to be a freeman. To become a freeman in the 19th century it required a payment of £25 or goods to that value, or serving a seven year apprenticeship to a freeman. In 1835 the Municipal Reform Act effectively rendered the office of Freemen as an honorary role, with only control of the areas of open land in and around the city. The earliest record of a Freeman of the city is a Samuel Fountiane listed in 1706 as an ink-horn maker and comb maker.
