Download or read book Bronze Age Settlement in the Welsh Marches written by John Halstead and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 2005 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archaeological evidence for Bronze Age (c,2500-750 BC) settlement in the Welsh Marches is limited and patchy with the focus of attention traditionally set on monuments and graves of the period. Despite this, John Halstead re-examines data from the Sites and Monuments Record relating to domestic settlement with a view to providing a better understanding of the nature and form of settlement locales and other activities during the period and assessing questions of settlement continuity, discontinuity and dislocation. Making inferences from site specific data and plotting these on maps of the area, he finds evidence for some degree of continuity in settlement locales and environments, perhaps with some residential mobility within these.

Download or read book The March of Wales 1067 1300 written by Max Lieberman and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By 1300, a region often referred to as the March of Wales had been created between England and the Principality of Wales. This March consisted of some forty castle-centred lordships extending along the Anglo-Welsh border and also across southern Wales. It took shape over more than two centuries, between the Norman conquest of England (1066) and the English conquest of Wales (1283), and is mentioned in Magna Carta (1215). It was a highly distinctive part of the political geography of Britain for much of the Middle Ages, yet the medieval March has long vanished, and today expressions like 'the marches' are used rather vaguely to refer to the Welsh Borders.What was the medieval March of Wales? How and why was it created? The March of Wales, 1067-1300: A Borderland of Medieval Britain provides comprehensible and concise answers to such questions. With the aid of maps, a list of key dates and source material such as the writings of Gerald of Wales (c.1146-1223), this book also places the March in the context of current academic debates on the frontiers, peoples and countries of the medieval British Isles.

Download or read book The Archaeology of Britain written by John Hunter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-16 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Archaeology of Britain is the only concise and up-to-date introduction to the archaeological record of Britain from the reoccupation of the landmass by Homo sapiens during the later stages of the most recent Ice Age until last century. This fully revised second edition extends its coverage, including greater detail on the first millennium AD beyond the Anglo-Saxon domain, and into recent times to look at the archaeological record produced by Britain’s central role in two World Wars and the Cold War. The chapters are written by experts in their respective fields. Each is geared to provide an authoritative but accessible introduction, supported by numerous illustrations of key sites and finds and a selective reference list to aid study in greater depth. It provides a one-stop textbook for the entire archaeology of Britain and reflects the most recent developments in archaeology both as a field subject and as an academic discipline. No other book provides such comprehensive coverage, with such a wide chronological range, of the archaeology of Britain. This collection is essential reading for undergraduates in archaeology, and all those interested in British archaeology, history and geography.

Download or read book Celtic Mythological Influences on American Theatre 1750 1875 written by W. Buck Baker and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1994 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume investigates and correlates the substantial undergrowth of myths, rituals, and superstitions that constituted the fabric of early America. Baker examines the Celtic legacy within the dramatic arts. The implications are profound in that they suggest the literature and religious observances of the pagan Celts continue to permeate and subliminally influence contemporary social interaction. Through extensive research, the author demonstrates indelible proponents of Celtic racial consciousness verified through American theatrical productions. Contents: Premises of Comparative Analysis; Theatre and Social Development; The Celts; Correlation in Colonial America; Demonstrations of Interrelations in American Theatre Productions; Conclusions.
