Abstract
Appendix; Anglo-Saxon cemeteries in the Thames Valley region
418 - 429
The archaeology of the gravel terraces of the Upper and Middle Thames. Early historical period; AD 1-1000
Provides an overview of the archaeological evidence from the Thames Valley for the Late Iron Age, Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods. The area studied in detail comprises the Upper Thames Valley, from the source of the river to the Goring Gap, and the Middle Thames Valley, from the Goring Gap to the start of the tidal zone at Teddington Lock. A summary of evidence for the character of the river and the vegetation and environment of its floodplain is followed by a detailed account of the evolving settlement pattern as currently understood from archaeological evidence. What archaeology can reveal about the Late Iron Age, Roman and Anglo-Saxon populations of the valley, and their changing lifestyles, culture, identities and beliefs is then considered. This is followed by a review of the evidence for production, trade, transport and communication, and the archaeology of power and politics. The volume concludes with a discussion of the state of knowledge today and its limitation, and emerging themes and problem areas for future research.
