Abstract
Round and rectangular: Iron Age houses, British and foreign
Dennis W Harding
43 - 62
House-plans, not all from recent excavations, are cited to expose the fallacy of the traditional belief that nearly all British Iron Age houses were round, nearly all Continental ones rectangular. Circular or oval houses on eight Continental sites indicate a tradition of round-house building in W Europe extending from the 1st century BC back into the BA, while the rectangular tradition of Central Europe spread westwards around 1000 BC with the "Urnfield culture". For much of the Iron Age, round and rectangular traditions co-existed N and W of the Alps. This recognition removes one of the arguments against the "invasion theory". Growing evidence for rectangular houses in the British Iron Age shows that rectangular dominates over circular in W Britain. A R
Roman Manchester and Templebrough: the forts and dates reviewed
Grace Simpson
69 - 93
[SJ 8397; SK 4191]. Existing evidence for two key Roman forts, Manchester and Templebrough (Rotherham), is re-examined. The stone defences at Manchester cannot be as early as 3rd century and probably date to early 4th or the Theodosian restoration. At Templebrough, the coarse pottery rescued by May suggests the sequence: early Flavian foundation; gap in late 1st century; occupation in early 2nd to perhaps AD 175 (4 Coh Gauls); gap until hasty defences and incomplete buildings were erected in c 4th century; final squatter occupation with tanks and kilns.
