Abstract:		 A range of evidence can be used to reveal the context of a significant number of early-medieval inscribed and sculptured stones in Wales. This can throw valuable light on their functions and on the origins and development of church sites. It is suggested that the stones whilst primarily commemorative were also symbols of landowning placed by secular elites. Sixth-century stones act as grave markers and are associated with local churches and cemeteries, whilst those of the ninth to eleventh centuries are clustered in and around major monasteries and regional churches.
