Description

Product Description This book gives a new account of society and social change in the upper and middle Thames Valley from the Late Bronze Age to Middle Iron Age, 1150-100 BC. A model is developed from social anthropological case studies setting out expectations on how societies are structured based on certain material manifestations. Patterns are found within the wide range of types of evidence that are integrated and synthesised. This includes settlements, house forms, metalwork, pottery, human and animal remains, monuments, landscape boundaries and special deposits.The main interpretation offered is that Late Bronze Age societies were fluid and unstructured by either social status differences or lineage identities, whereas Early Iron Age communities were more concerned with ancestral genealogy and inter-generational inheritance. By the Middle Iron Age, communal aspects of ritual practice and material practice were largely replaced by local and household concerns in which smaller groups displayed increasing autonomy from each other. Review 'A highly original and exciting approach, which opens up a new understanding of social relations in later prehistory. ... Makes a huge contribution to our understanding of land use and society in British prehistory.' Prof. Mike Parker Pearson, The UCL Institute of Archaeology 'This is an exciting and welcome new study. ... An original contribution, well situated in good data with fresh ideas and a new critical insight.' Dr Jodie Lewis, University of Worcester 'Very few surveys have been so comprehensively analysed and this will become a benchmark for future work on later prehistory. ... It has the potential to be a major contribution with very great significance.' Prof. Niall Sharples, Cardiff University About the Author Alex Davies
