This volume explores the results of archaeological research undertaken at the world-renowned Eilean Donan Castle in Scotland, focusing on the castle's medieval remnants.
Initial remote sensing survey at Tlachtga, Co. Meath in 2011-12 highlighted the presence of multiple, partially overlapping phases of enclosure at the site. Three subsequent seasons of excavation provided critical interpretive evidence, with over 15,000 fragments of animal bone, human remains, charred plant material, evidence of metalworking, and a hoard of Anglo-Saxon silver coins dating to the late 10th century AD.The main activity at the site spans four broad periods and two main phases of monumental construction: a late Bronze Age to early Iron Age 'Hillfort Phase' (1100-400 BC) and a late Iron Age to early medieval (AD 400-600) ringfort phase associated with a smaller foundation enclosure - the 'Southern Enclosure'. This ringfort phase was remodeled later in the early medieval period (9th-10th century AD) and augmented by a phase of mound construction in the mid-10th century AD. This is contemporary with the deposition of the coin hoard east of the main complex in an apparent craft-working area. The final phase of the central mound indicates the construction of a timber stockade, most likely in the 12th century, again with significant craft activity.This volume represents the excavation of at least four loci within the broader monumental landscape of Tlachtga, charting its progression from Bronze Age hillfort to pre-Anglo Norman power display mound. The excavations at the Hill of Ward and this publication were made possible through funding by the National Monuments Service via the Royal Irish Academy archaeological research excavation grants, and by Meath County Council, with additional support by the Office of Public Works and the Heritage Council.
Presents DNA and stable isotopic results from 23 burials in tombs of the Late Minoan III Necropolis of Armenoi, Crete and identifies the settlement as da-*22-to.
Examines origins, uses and subsequent histories of early monuments; their distinctive time scales; changing concepts of time (both past and future), histories and remembering the past.
Volume 20 focuses on recent advances in methodological approaches and new initiatives and their applications and implications and presents new studies on pottery production sites.
Presents a region-by-region consideration of the origins, dating, development, distribution, and social context of British Grooved Ware, the first overview in 25 years.
Develops and expands current research into the concept of economic circularity, whereby societies reduce waste by recycling, reusing, and repairing raw materials and finished products.
Textile production is one of the most important crafts in Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean Bronze Age societies and recent interdisciplinary and collaborative work offers crucial new perspectives into this field.
Results of seven community based excavation and recording projects provide new and significant insights into the construction and state of preservation of Hadrian's Wall.
Recent research on all aspects of the Old Kingdom in Egypt is presented in this volume, ranging through the Pyramid Texts, tomb architecture, ceramics, scene choice and layout, field reports, cemetery layout, tomb and temple statuary.
A fascinating new re-appraisal of evidence for sacrificial offerings, ritualized violence and the value dynamics of diverse contexts in the prehistory of Scandinavia and the Viking era.
Details two examples of a previously unknown class of larger lowland settlement in Northumberland, enabling an in-depth exploration of the development of pattern, connectivity, community and status.
