Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The Iron Age hoards of ironwork are concentrated in SW England, whereas the Roman examples have two main centres, the Tyne-Forth area in late 1st/mid-2nd century, and SE England in 4th century. Examples are of two kinds, burials (occasionally in hillforts) or deposits in watery places. They probably represent votive offerings, beginning in the SW Iron Age with currency bar hoards and mixed hoards, spreading to E Anglia and Kent by the Roman Conquest and soon ceasing. The practice reappeared in the N British Roman military sites, and had a resurgence in the late Roman period in SE England, by then confined to deep pits and wells. Smiths' hoards can be ruled out in view of the absence of scrap metal and blacksmith's tools. | ||||||||||||||||||||
