Abstract:
Largely evinced by intensive sampling of the ridge's buried soil, this prolific site featured a high-density Mesolithic lithic scatter and, also, yielded traces of less intense Neolithic and earlier Bronze Age usage; thereafter, the area attracted Late Bronze Age 'midden-like'/'-level' deposition. The sequence concluded in the later Iron Age, when, apart from a small farmstead enclosure, the ridge then saw an extraordinary range of ritual activity along its northern flank. Focusing upon a riverside 'midden'/platform (including dismembered horse carcasses), this involved disarticulated human remains and small votive 'packages' (e.g. variously clutches of weaving combs and brooches). This ritual activity evidently continued into the decades immediately following the Roman Conquest.
