Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Anglesey has a remarkable diversity and richness of Romano-British archaeology, profiting from being an extensive lowland tract lying offshore of a mountainous region. Though it may be sparse in terms of upstanding monuments of its Roman past, nineteenth-century and later accounts, as well as more recent discoveries, demonstrate the enormous potential which lies beneath the ground. This brief survey attempts to set the archaeology of the island’s Romano-British past against that of north-west Wales as a whole, by both drawing attention to the significance of the antiquarian records and the impact of new discoveries which have a potential to dramatically change our perception of its Romano-British past. It commences at the Roman conquest; then moves on to consider the defence of Roman interests, specifically the exploitation of metal sources, before encompassing significant enhancement of our knowledge concerning settlement and subsistence. | |||
