In an unprecedented occupation sequence from an Anglo-Saxon  rural settlement, six main periods of occupation have been  identified, dating from the seventh to the early eleventh  centuries; with a further period of activity, between the twelfth  and fifteenth centuries AD. The remains of approximately forty  buildings and other structures were uncovered; and due to the  survival of large refuse deposits, huge quantities of artefacts  and faunal remains were encountered compared with most other  rural settlements of the period. The quality of the overall  archaeological data contained within the settlement sequence is  important for both the examination of site-specific issues, and  for the investigation of wider research themes and problems,  facing settlement studies in England, between AD 600 and 1050.       Volume 1 focuses on the occupation sequence, looking at the  structural and stratigraphical evidence from the site, and  interpreting the changing use of the site during its lengthy  occupation. This interpretation of the occupation sequence forms  the basis for all thematic discussions in Volumes 3 and 4. It  also examines the evidence for burials at the site, and places  this into the wider context of sepulchral practices in mid and  late Saxon England. Finally there is discussion of the  osteological remains themselves, giving hints of the demographic  spectrum of the inhabitants, their lifestyles and ailments.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49573566152977,"sku":"GOR010116538","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1842172557.jpg?v=1750767321","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/early-medieval-settlement-remains-from-flixborough-lincolnshire-book-christopher-loveluck-9781842172551","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
