Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Between September and November 2007, an archaeological watching brief was carried out by Northamptonshire Archaeology during flood attenuation works on the north side of the River Nene, between Kislingbury and Upton, Northampton. The topsoil was stripped in three separate areas. In one area a small pit contained the cremated bones of an adult within an inverted Collared Urn. This burial has been radiocarbon dated to the early 2nd millennium BC, the early Bronze Age. A number of postholes lay nearby, one of which cut the cremation pit and may have contained a grave marker. However, there is no indication that this burial lay close to a round barrow or any other funerary deposits, so it appears to have been an isolated burial. A series of undated shallow, parallel gullies and postholes, possibly part of a water-meadow management system, and a post-medieval or modern boundary ditch were recorded in the other watching brief areas | ||||
