Abstract:		 Presents evidence against the idea that AS settlements directly preceded the early medieval nucleated variety -- particularly with reference to Mucking (Essex). This example can be seen to be typical of the continental Wandersiedlungen. The settlement was mobile although the burial ground remained the same. Varied theories for the nature of settlement abandonment have been put forward and are outlined. Instead of viewing the shift as marginal to prime location or dispersed to nucleated settlement, it is seen as a basic trend from mobile toward stable communities.
