Abstract
Iron Age coinage on the Isle of Wight
Imogen Wellington
39 - 57
This paper presents a discussion and catalogue of the Iron Age coins found on the Isle of Wight which have been recorded, or are extant, on the island. These coins show a wide variety of links with the mainland and continental Europe. Many of the coins are of unusual or unique types, suggesting a political division between the Isle of Wight and recognized major tribal groups for at least some of the LIA. Links are indicated with the intermediary Hampshire group introduced by Sellwood (1984). Strong links are shown with the Durotriges group to the west and to a lesser degree with the Atrebates/Regni group to the east. There are also preliminary indications of political and social centralization on the island for the first time, from numismatic finds. There is an appendix providing:

Pests and diseases of prehistoric crops: a yield 'honeymoon' for early grain crops in Europ...
S P Dark
Henry Gent
59 - 78
Considers the role of pests and diseases in agrarian change over several millennia. The initial introduction of farming into temperate Europe may have seen a `honeymoon' period where semi-arid and Mediterranean pests and diseases did not adapt to the different climate and indigenous pests and diseases did not immediately adapt to the cereals. Subsequently, however, some pests and diseases evolved to attack cereals in this environment and the medieval period saw particularly low yields. Adapting to cope with this may have prompted changes in grain production methods to reduce the risk of damage.
York and its region in the eighth and ninth centuries AD: an archaeological study
John Naylor
79 - 105
A paper highlighting the need for a regional focus in the study of the early medieval economy and emporia. Using York and its region as the basis for the study, coinage, pottery and stone artefacts are examined through their regional distributions, and implications for trade and exchange (long-distance, regional and local) are discussed. The concluding discussion suggests that York, whilst probably the main centre for long-distance trade, may have been only one of a number of trading centres, and that during the later eighth and ninth centuries, regional exchange may have become increasingly important with the rise of potential markets at a number of inland sites. There follows
