Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Archaeological excavations at the former CEMEX Cement Works, Barrington, revealed evidence for an Iron Age settlement dating to between c. 400 and 200 cal. BC. A variety of domestic archaeological features, including storage pits, numerous cooking pits, probable clay extraction pits for making daub, a waterhole, and at least six four-post structures were excavated. Within some of the storage pits was evidence for so-called ‘special’ deposition of both animal bone (including a complete calf skeleton) and disarticulated and cremated human bone. Part of what may have been an extensive system of rectilinearly organised (co-axial) ditches appears to pre-date most of the Iron Age pits and is thought likely to have origins in the Middle Bronze Age. Significantly, it appears that this field system was still a visible and, in part, still-maintained aspect of the local landscape into the Middle Iron Age. | ||||||||||||||||
