Abstract
Elms Farm, Heybridge
452 - 458
Preliminary report on the large-scale excavation of a Romano-British small town, near Maldon in Essex. Whilst little seems to be known about the economic nature of this settlement, a Roman temple complex was discovered, together with elements of the street plan and a series of cremations. BA, LIA and Saxon occupation of the area have also been noted.
The Buckland Saxon cemetery
Keith Parfitt
459 - 463
New building development led to the discovery of more of a Saxon cemetery originally excavated in the 1950s. Two hundred and fifty graves were examined and most were sixth century in date. Gold bracteates or pendants were found along with brooches, weapons, buckles and beads, and some graves contained pottery. The style of the material is argued to represent a Northern French or Rhineland influence, rather than a Jutish one.
Footloose in archaeology
Phyllis Jackson
466 - 470
It is argued that there are distinctive chronological and spatial variations in the structure of the bones of the feet. Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age, Roman, and Saxon types of foot have all been recognised.
Diary
471 - 473
Items on the year of archaeology in the Outer Hebrides; a management plan for Hadrian's Wall, necessitated by the construction of a long distance footpath; and repair work on the mosaics at Brading Roman villa.
Science Diary
John Musty
481 - 483
Items on Homo erectus in western Eurasia; early chariots dated by AMS to c 2000 BC; dating beeswax and its use as a sealant on porous medieval pottery; conservation work on the Mary Rose; lifting and moving large objects from site to laboratory; Palaeolithic boomerangs; the transfer of the SBAC from SERC to NERC; the opening of NERC's radiocarbon dating facilities to archaeologists; and early rice and cacoa cultivation.
