Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Archaeological investigations along the South West Water pipeline between Engelly and Sevenmilestone took place during the winter of 1995--1996. The results from a geophysical survey near to the Callestock Veor cider farm, led to the rescue excavation of a long-lived LBA circular structure which dated between approximately 1100 and 700 BC. The structure was situated within an artificial hollow approximately 8m in diameter, with a long porch extending from its southern side. The discovery of the structure has added another type to the range of excavated BA buildings in lowland Cornwall. The structure did not seem to have been used as a domestic dwelling, but instead appears to have fulfilled a `ritualistic' function. Its excavation provided further evidence for the elaborate processes associated with the abandonment of BA buildings in Cornwall. In particular an important, though small, LBA ceramic assemblage was uncovered during the excavation which appears to demonstrate evidence for the long term curation and structured deposition of artefacts.
