| Synopsis: |
Site report from Philip Rahtz's famous excavations at the late/post-Roman hilltop settlement in Somerset. By the sixth century it had achieved high status as a cultural centre, patronizing craft-workers, and having access to glass and ceramics from the Anglo-Saxon areas to the east, and from the Eastern Mediterranean, North Africa and possibly France or Spain. As only 5% of the site was excavated, many of the interpretations are tentative, but discussion examines the possible cultural, political and religious affiliations of the community, and its relationship with both local and European neighbours. |
