The Earlier Iron Age in Britain and the Near Continent
edited by Colin Haselgrove and Rachel Pope
For much of Britain, the Earlier Iron Age has eluded attention and been characterised more by what it lacks than what it comprises: for Bronze Age studies it lacks bronze, while from the perspective of the Later Iron Age it lacks elaborate enclosures. This is in stark contrast with mainland Europe which has yielded a wealth of burial evidence and links with Mediterranean trade. New evidence on both sides of The Channel has evened out these ...

War and Worship: Textiles from 3rd to 4th-century AD Weapon Deposits in Denmark and Northern Germany
by Susan Möller-Wiering
War and Worship concerns textile deposits from the bog sites of Thorsberg in Germany and Nydam, Vimose and Illerup Ådal in Denmark. All four sites are well-known for containing a substantial amount of archaeological materials, particularly weapons, but they also contain, as integral parts of the weapon deposits, a smaller number of preserved textiles, which nevertheless constitute outstanding assemblages. With the exception of ...

The Later Iron Age in Britain and Beyond
edited by Colin Haselgrove and Tom Moore
The last fifteen years have seen a major shift in Iron Age studies. Once seen as a rather dull and lifeless subject, the period is now at the forefront of theoretical debate. In this book, the Later Iron Age is taken to be c.400/300BC until the Roman Conquest. This period is one that saw dynamic change in settlement patterns and use of landscape. Later prehistoric archaeologists have become increasingly aware of the significance of the study of ...

Changing Perspectives on the First Millennium BC: Proceedings of the Iron Age Research Student Seminar 2006
edited by Oliver Davis, Niall Sharples and Kate Waddington
These fifteen papers came out of the eighth annual meeting of the Iron Age Research Student Seminar (IARSS) and are loosely grouped into three topics: settlement studies, deposition and material culture, and experimental archaeology. Most of the studies are re-examinings of well known data sets, such as hillforts, small enclosures and bone assemblages, both human and animal. They are mainly focused on the British Iron Age - one of the most ...

Excavations by K M Kenyon in Jerusalem, Volume 4: The Iron Age Cave Deposits
edited by I Eshel and K Prag
Kathleen Kenyon died in 1978 without having published final reports on her excavations in Jerusalem. These are being now published in five volumes. This volume concentrates on finds outside the walls of the Iron Age city, and particularly on the enigmatic, pottery-rich depositis in Caves I and II to the south east of the city. Eshel's analysis of the pottery leads him to suggest a 7th-century BC date. Although fragmentary figurines and other ...

Development-led Archaeology in North-West Europe
edited by Richard Bradley, Colin Haselgrove, Marc Vander Linden and Leo Webley
This volume contains 15 papers exploring the ways in which varying traditions of development-led archaeology across north-west Europe influence, or are reflected in, variations in archaeological patterning relating to human behaviour in the past. The volume stems from a round table meeting entitled "Prehistory and development-led archaeology in northwestern Europe", held at the University of Leicester in late November 2009, which was, itself, ...

The Guadajoz Project. Andalucía in the First Millennium BC Volume 1
by Barry Cunliffe and María Cruz Fernández Castro
This volume makes an excellent site report in its own right, but the general, multi-period overview of social and settlement history, something which has been sadly lacking in past research, makes this a valuable addition to Iberian archaeology. Trial excavations were made at the site of Torreparedones in the Guadalquivir Valley between 1987-1992. This volume presents the results of the fieldwork and specialist studies: ceramics, small finds ...

Old Sleaford Revealed
by Sheila Elsdon
This report draws together the archaeology of Old Sleaford in Lincolnshire describing chiefly the results of Margaret Jones' excavations in the 1960s, as well as older and more recent discoveries. The evidence shows that there was a large late Iron Age settlement covering more than 30 hectares, and the finds include an enormous quantity of debris - fragments of pellet-moulds and crucibles - from a large Iron Age mint. The report also covers the ...

Iron Age Communities in Britain
by Barry Cunliffe
Modestly called a third edition, this huge book presents a complete reworking of Britain's Iron Ages taking account of the rapid increase in evidence and of the quite radical change of emphasis that has taken place in the last twenty years. There are new chapters on warfare and food production; there is new material added throughout; there are completely new line darwings. The title may be the same, but it is a new book.
