Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Area-excavation towards the centre of the fort has shown that well-defined traces of occupation exist, ranging from the Roman period to early 19th century. The nature of the Roman occupation, though still uncertain in many aspects, is becoming much clearer and can now be divided into phases tentatively linked to a broad historical framework. Early in the 5th century settlement of Germanic type appeared, with which was associated a gilded bronze disc of apparently sub-Roman form. Then followed more regular Saxon occupation, beginning in late 5th or early 6th century and probably continuing to 8th/9th century. The late Saxon period provides a very detailed picture of a hall with its ancillary buildings, land boundaries and rubbish-tipping area, all of considerable potential significance on more than a local scale. The later periods are more sporadically represented, but interesting correlations can be made between the archaeological evidence and contemporary documentary and graphic accounts. Five more seasons are planned. Au | |||||||||||||||
