Abstract: |
The volume draws together contributions from a number of specialists to provide an agenda for future research within the Avebury World Heritage Site. It has been produced in response to the English Heritage initiative for the development of regional and period research frameworks in England, and represents the first such formal agenda for a World Heritage Site. An introductory discussion of the specific research requirements is followed by a resource assessment, a research agenda and a study of research strategies. These sections are arranged chronologically and cover the Palaeolithic through to the Saxon and medieval periods. The final section examines the methods and techniques used to gather data. These include geophysical survey, fieldwalking, aerial survey, evaluation and excavation, GIS survey and metal detecting. Includes French and German summaries. |
