Abstract
Bronze Age trackways in East London
412 - 416
Ten timber trackways have been discovered at various locations in the former marshlands alongside the River Thames as it passes though Essex. Six have been radiocarbon dated to the middle of the Bronze Age. Their purposes remain obscure, but it is suggested that they were used to take cattle out on to the marshes at a time of agricultural intensification.
Diary
417 - 419
Reports on the CIA and IFA conferences; the National Trust's centenary; William Morris's former home at Kelmscott Manor (now owned by the Society of Antiquaries of London); the new RCHME offices at Swindon; and a membership drive for the Royal Archaeological Institute.
No1, Poultry
420 - 425
Report on a large excavation in the centre of the City of London. Roman, Saxon and medieval, and post medieval levels have been identified. The finds include a Roman bronze oil lamp, burials dating to the years after the Great Fire, and remains of Roman and medieval water conduits.
Science Diary
John Musty
433 - 435
Items include a microstructural analysis of the Boxgrove shin bone; the find of a BA wheel at Flag Fen; an early population of European origin in China; new research based on the Chlorine-36 isotope which may show that the Stonehenge bluestones were moved by human agency and not by glacial activity (see also 96/305); the world wide catastrophe of AD 534/535; news of recent analysis of the bow and axe of the Iceman; petrographic analysis of Roman stone; the 7,500 calorie a day diet of Benedictine monks; supercritical drying of waterlogged wood; and mummification of Chilean corpses.
Blawearie
Stan Beckensall
436 - 440
Report of the re-excavation of a barrow, first excavated in 1865. A kerb circle was constructed in the Late Neolithic or EBA; at a later date burials and cremations were inserted below the cobbled surface of the interior causing a great upheaval of the structure of the monument. Finds, including beads and a food vessel, are noted.
Walton
444 - 445
Aerial photograph has revealed a cursus monument near Walton, on the English-Welsh border. Excavation recovered a large mound, below which were numerous pits and postholes. Substantial amounts of Late Neolithic, Grooved and Peterborough ware vessels were found together with a large amount of flint tools.
