Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Limited archaeological work in advance of a road improvement programme examined the north side of an Iron Age enclosure and several sets of field systems. This area of a ditched enclosure was occupied from the fifth to first centuries BC. Evidence for the cultivation of both wet and dry soils, grain storage and processing, animal husbandry, butchery and skinning, the use of local and non-local pottery, and textile production was revealed. The extensive linear boundary systems were determined as either undated or of probable Middle-Late Bronze Age construction in a well-established open landscape. The report is divided into four sections. Section one, `The excavation of an Iron Age enclosure at Lains Farm' (7--45) includes `The artefacts and economic evidence' edited by Elaine Morris (15--41) with `The pottery' by Elaine Morris (17--28), `The fired clay objects and material' by Lorraine Mepham (28--30), `The worked stone and flint' by Peter S Bellamy (30--1), `The iron object' by Peter S Bellamy (31), `The worked bone' by Peter S Bellamy (31--2), `The human bone' by Vincent Jenkins (32), `The animal bone' by Jennie P Coy (32--6), `The carbonised and mineralised plant remains' by Wendy J Carruthers (36--41). Completing section one is `The environmental evidence' by M J Allen (41--5). Section two, `The A303 watching brief: Thruxton to Amesbury' by Peter S Bellamy (45--63) includes reports on `The pottery' by Elaine Morris (52--3), the worked flint, and `The environmental evidence' by M J Allen (55--63). Section three is `The A303 watching brief: Andover to Thruxton' by P Harding (63--72). Finally section four is `The A303 project' (72--7) containing summaries of `The Lains Farm enclosure' by Peter S Bellamy & Elaine Morris (72--4), `The A303 watching brief: Amesbury to Thruxton' by Peter S Bellamy (74--6), `The A303 watching brief' Andover to Thruxton' by P Harding (76), and `General conclusions' by Peter S Bellamy (76--7).
