Abstract
Castles on paper
Terry Ball
2 - 15
Discusses the changing role of the reconstruction drawing, from Viollet le Duc to the present. The spread of computer-aided drawing and photogrammetry has led to a lack of training in how to look and draw, but artists have a great deal to contribute to scholarship through their questioning eyes. The quality of re-creation of sites as done for films, TV or tourists, gives rise for concern.
The earliest defences in western Europe. Part I: warfare in the Neolithic
Roger J Mercer
16 - 22
Examines the earliest evidence for prepared and permanent defences in prehistory, and considers anthropological and sociological explanations for primitive warfare. The idea of defence starts slowly at about 3500/3100 bc in the Rössen Culture, then spreads rapidly at about 3000 bc with interrupted ditches all over the area. Cattle must be a prime cause of this, both as mobile wealth and because they need enclosing for numerous reasons. Warfare can be treated as a game, as an outlet for tension, as revenge, as check on population, and so on. Hembury is examined in this light.
The defences of Hull
Martin Foreman
36 - 45
Reviews twenty years of archaeological examination of Hull's defences, which began in 1293, were remodelled under Henry VIII, received a Citadel in late 17th, and were used until the 1850s. Excavations recently on the Citadel confirmed and enlarged the evidence of documents.
