Collaboratory, Coronavirus and the Colonial Countryside
No full textIntroducing the second volume of the Offa's Dyke Journal (ODJ), this five-part article sets the scene by reviewing: (i) key recent research augmenting last year's Introduction (Williams and Delaney 2019); (ii) the key activities of the Offa's Dyke Collaboratory in 2020; (iii) the political mobilisation of Offa's Dyke in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns; (iv) the ramifications of accelerated efforts to decolonise the British countryside on both archaeological research and heritage interpretation on linear monuments; and (v) a review of the contents of volume 2. Together, this introduction presents the context and significance of ODJ volume 2 for both research on the Welsh Marches and broader investigations of frontiers and borderlands
CARACTERIZACIÓN DE MATERIALES: LA DOCUMENTACIÓN HISTÓRICA EN LAS LECTURAS PLANIMÉTRICAS DE FACHADAS
Get PDFLas planimetrÃas de los estudios previos a la propuesta de intervención de un inmueble de interés cultural manifiestan la superposición de la información procedente de la documentación histórico-constructiva, la lectura arqueológica, y el mapa de lesiones principalmente, incluyendo una cartografÃa especÃfica cuando existe variedad de materiales. Las fases constructivas, o por el contrario las lagunas en las estructuras preexistentes, la incidencia de los factores antrópicos o de las condiciones ambientales, inclusive la métrica constructiva, la diferencia o no de los materiales, son algunos aspectos que exponen las planimetrÃas de los arcos decorados del aljibe Almohade (siglos X-XII) de la Casa de Las Veletas de Cáceres, en la configuración del lado norte de las ruinas de la iglesia de San Juan Bautista de Burguillos del Cerro (XIII-XIV) y en el crecimiento por adición de la fachada sur de la Colegiata de Caspe desde 1394 con intervenciones posteriores
Two Chimeras in the Landscape
No full textThis article discusses the history of investigations into British linear earthworks in the twentieth century. The influence of pre-existing beliefs about the environment of Britain, especially the existence of impassable forest cover, deeply influenced the interpretation of linear monuments and had a lasting effect on the study of these monuments. A brief history of the personalities involved is followed by two case studies of monuments that were believed to be post-Roman in date but are now seen as Iron Age monuments. The implications of the change in the relationship to of the dykes to the landscape is discussed along with potential future research, better informed by an awareness of this confusing tradition of field archaeology
'A 'good death': the life and times of an experimental Neolithic house and its reception in the village of Nebelivka, Co. Kirovograd, Ukraine
No full textThousands of archaeological fieldwork projects must have stories about the interactions between their host village and the Project, although such accounts rarely make it to publication. The Anglo-Ukrainian Trypillia Megasites Project differs from many others in that we developed a closer relationship than usual with the villagers of Nebelivka, Ukraine, largely because of an experimental house-building and -burning operation that involved a number of villagers, from young reed- and hazel withy-collectors to the village Mayor. In this article, we weave together the different threads of actions, decisions, agendas and attitudes of the different stakeholders (team, villagers, politicians, journalists, other villagers, conference delegates etc.) in respect of the Project's experimental programme, focussing on the day of the house-burning, with its spectacular multi-sensory results. In conclusion, we reflect upon the application of the question 'what is a good death?' to a prehistoric house, taking into consideration the varied views of the participants on this question
Offa's and Wat's Dykes
No full textDavid Hill and Margaret Worthington Hill's Offa's Dyke Project made a sustained contribution to the study of both Wat's Dyke and Offa's Dyke. To celebrate and reflect on this legacy, we have secured permission to reproduce David Hill's 1991 book chapter 'Offa's and Wat's Dykes' in the Offa's Dyke Journal. The article has been edited for style and includes a new introduction, re-drawn maps, the original section drawings, plus one of the original photographs. Citations have been added to key works available at the time of Hill's writing. Further citations have been added to help readers link Hill's arguments to more recent publications. Published electronically for the first time, we hope Hil's work reaches new audiences and re-energises the enthusiasm and efforts of enthusiasts, students and specialists alike in Britain's longest early medieval linear earthworks
LAS INSCRIPCIONES RUPESTRES TIFINAGH EN AOUINET AZGUER 9 (TAN TAN, MARRUECOS) - The Tifinagh Rock Inscriptions in Aouinet Azguer 9 (Tan Tan, Morocco)
Get PDFEl análisis de las inscripciones rupestres tifinagh a través de la metodologÃa empleada en la investigación del arte rupestre aporta diferentes perspectivas al estudio de una escritura no descifrada. El conjunto rupestre de Aouinet Azguer (Tan Tan, Marruecos) supone la existencia de toda una secuencia gráfica en la cual integrar la aparición del tifinagh y a partir de la cual reflexionar sobre la relación entre motivos pictóricos y testimonios epigráficos
Reflecting on evaluation in public archaeology
Get PDFAs heritage professionals, our community-facing projects are embedded in the politics of cultural heritage, and reverberate throughout the communities where we work. The only way to know if archaeological outreach and community engagement are working is to ask stakeholders. Yet undertaking formal evaluation is difficult, with differing expectations and definitions of success, depending on the requirements of funders, the willingness of the participants, and the needs of the practitioners. What do we mean when we discuss successful progress and outcomes for public engagement with archaeology, and how do we analyse these? Are we working towards assessments of our own satisfaction with work done, the satisfaction of the dominant political forms of cultural value, the formal procedures of our funding streams, or the experiential and educational needs of the non-professional with whom we engage
