Abstract: |
All the types of settlement known in the Late Iron Age (1st-2nd centuries AD) were in at least intermittent occupation thereafter, and there was some degree of continuity in material cultural goods and in socio-historical affiliations. Intrusive settlement types such as the Norse house and the timber hall derived from Anglo-Saxon types had little effect on this general settlement pattern. Treated in some detail are the Early Christian forts, duns, crannogs and the like; the Norse house; the Iron Age type settlements cccupied in medieval or later times (crannogs, souterrains, scooped settlements, hillforts etc). The post-Roman forts are not mere farmsteads, but neither are they capitals or military centres. |
