Abstract:		 Archaeological excavations at Tattenhoe Park, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, were carried out by Northamptonshire Archaeology between April and September 2005. The main area excavation included most of an open settlement of the middle Iron Age, which has been radiocarbon dated to the early part of the period, 400-200BC. The settlement comprised a principal roundhouse group and was surrounded by further roundhouses and groups of four-post structures. A linear ditch may have formed a landscape boundary, and in its later use there was a partial enclosure of parts of the settlement. The material evidence was poor, with the pottery highly fragmented and few other finds were recovered, but some copper alloy casting had been carried out. Animal bone and charred plant remains were also sparse and poorly preserved, but it is suggested that pastoral agricultural may have dominated the economy. A few larger pits and other features produced a little late Iron and Roman pottery, and a few cremation deposits have been radiocarbon dated to the mid-3rd to mid-4th centuries, perhaps showing long-term ancestral memory. The remains of a small post-medieval farmstead comprising a brick-built house within a walled yard, was also investigated.
