Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Longbury Bank is a native British early medieval settlement occupied in the sixth and seventh centuries AD. The excavations in 1988-89 produced a series of artefacts which provide evidence of high status: imported Mediterranean pottery; continental pottery and glass; fine metalworking debris; and a unusual Type G penannular brooch. This site is unusual in being undefended and it is suggested that it belongs to a newly recognised class of undefended high status secular sites, other possible examples of which are discussed. The site is placed in its historical and landscape context through the use of pre-Norman and later documentation which appears to show a major shift in settlement in eighth or ninth centuries. The finds are examined by E Campbell (29-54) with the exceptions of scientific analysis of the glass by J Henderson (46-9). The land mollusca are described by A Rouse (53), the animal bone by B Noddle and J Evans (53) and the charred plant remains by A Milles (53-4). | |||||||||||
