Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
A grant from Our Heritage, a Heritage Lottery Fund scheme, facilitated a programme of archive conservation and reassessment, site improvement, archaeological investigation and community outreach at Whitehawk Camp, an early neolithic causewayed enclosure, during 2014 and 2015. Data gathered by the project indicates how the monument has deteriorated since the 19th century, due to a variety of impacts, and the extent to which these have, or have not, been archaeologically recorded. Through the experience of the project, suggestions are made as to how the site can be better protected in the future and the site improvement works carried out by the project are described. The archaeological investigations carried out by the project are then outlined and the limitations of the results of previous fieldwork and the surviving archive detailed. Through the reassessment of the site’s stratigraphic and finds archives, site formation processes and site use are addressed. The reassessment revises our understanding of the site and also its importance in the light of modern archaeological techniques and current knowledge of the British neolithic period. | ||
