Abstract
Boxgrove Man hits the headlines
Mark B Roberts
6 - 7
Reports the discovery in 1993 of the tibia of this Middle Pleistocene hominid. Subsequent work included stabilising and computed tomography scanning, the latter revealing substantial lower limb strength indicating an active individual. Contemporary fauna are similar to those at Heidelberg -- previously the site of Europe's oldest inhabitant -- and Boxgrove hominid is therefore tentatively classified as Homo cf Heidelbergensis.
Patcham's double-ring round-house
Christopher Greatorex

Reports the discovery of a BA settlement characterised by pits, a possible hearth, ditch, various post-holes and a double-ring roundhouse in a good state of preservation. Also recovered were an almost complete BA pottery vessel buried in one of the pits, miscellaneous BA sherds, two animal burials, worked flint and a whetstone.

Brief note on evidence from High Street, Pevensey, dating from the twelfth to the nineteenth century. Cesspits yielded information on medieval diet in the form of shell and bone. Carbonised plant remains also featured. Post excavation work on this data continues.
100 bodies at medieval hospital
Mark F Gardiner
9
Excavation in two areas prior to construction work at the hospital of St Nicholas in Lewes has revealed quarry pits dating to the eleventh and thirteenth centuries. Pottery from the sites appears to be Saxo-Norman and the hundred bodies unearthed at the cemetery include two possible hangings and other potentially violent deaths that could be linked to the Battle of Lewes.

An overview of the known archaeology at this site near Stanmer. RB and medieval pottery was recorded during fieldwalking by Brighton and Hove Archaeological Society. Resistivity surveys and small scale excavation, the latter in an area previously dug in 1950, revealed an IA storage pit and cobbled area. Sarsen stones are also in evidence.

Excavations from 1968-82 produced much evidence from this moated site.The death of Ray Hartridge (former president of Brighton & Hove Archaeological Society) occurred as the report was nearing completion. The past two years have seen the compilation of a pottery report from the site which will chronicle the complex phases. Full publication is, at time of writing, imminent.
