21. British Archaeology, No 35, June 1998: Features An article on dovecotes by Klara Spandl in british archaeology, with references and a list of dovecotes open to the public. http://www.britarch.ac.uk/ba/ba35/ba35feat.html

ISSN 1357-4442 Editor: Simon Denison Issue no 35, June 1998 FEATURES Exploring the round houses of doves Dovecotes survive all over Britain. Klara Spandl explains what can still be seen Go to many villages in Britain and behind at least one garden wall or within a field or farmyard there will be a small round, square or rectangular building which can be identified as a dovecote. Today dovecotes form picturesque buildings in the landscape, but once they served a practical function, providing housing for an important part of the household diet. Young doves or pigeons (squabs) supplied fresh meat throughout the year, while older birds were mainly used to lay eggs, with some culling occurring before winter. The birds were also bred for their manure, and in the 16th and 17th centuries for saltpetre - a component of dung - which was used to make gunpowder. The earliest use of dovecotes in Britain may have been in the Roman period - although no certain examples are known of that date. It is known that the Romans kept doves and not only do recipes survive (in the work of Apicius) but also recommendations (in Varro) that the squabs' legs should be broken to restrict movement in their nests and make them even more tender to eat. The traditional view, however, is that dovecotes were introduced by the Normans. The earliest known examples of dove-keeping occur in Norman castles of the 12th century (for example, at Rochester Castle, Kent, where nest-holes can be seen in the keep), and documentary references also begin in the 12th century. The earliest surviving, definitely-dated free-standing dovecote in this country was built in 1326 at Garway in Herefordshire (there is a date-stone), although others exist where an earlier date has been claimed. During the medieval period large dovecotes were built on manors, at castles and monasteries. The right to build a dovecote was traditionally reserved to the lord of the manor, and was presumably much resented by tenant farmers as the lord's doves could eat their weight in corn every day.

ISSN 1357-4442 Editor: Simon Denison Issue no 53, June 2000 FEATURES Great sites: Llyn Cerrig Bach Mike Parker Pearson recalls the site that revealed the religious significance of water in later prehistoric Britain The years of the Second World War were a curiously productive period for archaeology in Britain. The famous Anglo-Saxon treasures of Sutton Hoo were hastily dug out in the months before war broke out, and `rescue archaeology' - the emergency excavation of construction sites - was born in the work carried out by WF Grimes on new defence installations all around Britain. Few wartime discoveries, however, proved to be as dramatic or far-reaching as the chance finds made by RAF engineers building a remote airfield in North Wales in 1942. RAF Valley, near Llanfihangel-yn-Nhowyn on Anglesey, was built over the former lake of Llyn Cerrig Bach, and the finds were made when engineers began digging out sediments from the lake to stabilise sand dunes and level the ground surface. In amongst the heaps of peat they noticed iron weapons and chains. In July 1943 the director of the National Museum of Wales, Sir Cyril Fox, received a letter from RAF Valley's resident engineer informing him of the finds. Fox visited for two days in August and arrangements were made to ship the material to the National Museum, a task which was finally completed in 1945. Despite wartime secrecy

27. British Archaeology, No 7, September 1995: Interview Interview in british archaeology September 1995 with the Director of the successful York Archaeological Trust and retiring President of the CBA. http://www.britarch.ac.uk/ba/ba7/ba7int.html

British Archaeology , no 7, September 1995: Interview Simon Denison talks to Peter Addyman So farewell then, Mr President If the presidency of the CBA had a formal `job description', it might read something like this: massively time-consuming work, much of it at weekends, endless travelling to represent the CBA as advocate, conciliator, enthusiast and guide; payment, nil; thanks, occasional; pleasure, potential; prestige, enormous. Sounds fun? Perhaps not. But Peter Addyman, who retires as President this month, has carried out the task with diligence and - he insists - great enjoyment for the past three years. There are many at the CBA, aware of the burden of work he has voluntarily taken on, who will be sorry to see him go. Peter Addyman's `real job' is at the York Archaeological Trust, which he set up, and has directed, since 1972. The Trust is one of the most commercially innovative of Britain's professional units, and visitors are treated with a kind of smart business panache: we met there on one of the hottest days of the year, and out came the strawberries and sparkling elderflower cordial no instant coffee for guests at this unit! Peter Addyman is canny and circumspect, naturally reticent about his feelings and private life, and aware of the fact that too much heart-searching in front of a journalist may not always do oneself, or one's organisation, any favours. His answers are often indirect - he tells you what he wants you to know - which makes him somewhat perplexing to interview. So to an extent one has to read between the lines.

32. The CBA Archaeology & Education Conference 2001 This conference (supported by English Heritage and the Learning and Teaching Support Network) is aimed at all who are interested in archaeology and education. http://www.britarch.ac.uk/cba/..\educate\conf01.html

Archaeology and education CBA conference, 13-16 September 2001 This conference (supported by English Heritage and the Learning and Teaching Support Network) is aimed at all who are interested in archaeology and education. It will cover the whole educational range from work with schools to higher and adult continuing education. The sessions at the conference will cover examples of current good practice, as well as issues and themes that could be of interest in making archaeological education more relevant for the 21st century. A key issue to be explored at the conference will be the purpose of teaching archaeology. It is increasingly evident that the study of the past needs to highlight its relevance and utility to today’s society. The government is currently using the notion of social inclusion to tie together many aspects of its work, including education. It is this which supports the development of new agendas in education like citizenship and sustainable development. Archaeology has an important part to play in enhancing quality of life and supporting social inclusion. There will be specific sessions addressing this theme at the conference, along with examples of good practice. There will also be plenary sessions devoted to particular educational sectors, ie 5-14 education, 14+ education (GCSE, A level etc), full-time and part-time university education on Friday and Saturday mornings. Networks of tutors in further, higher and continuing education will also have the chance to meet and discuss issues of common concern on Saturday morning. Other workshops will also be relevant to the concerns of various sectors.

36. British Archaeology, No 26, July 1997: Features An article by Andrew Chamberlain from british archaeology discussing Paleolithic mortuary practices in Great Britain. http://www.britarch.ac.uk/ba/ba26/ba26feat.html#cavern

British Archaeology , no 26, July 1997: Features In this dark cavern thy burying place For most of prehistory, people buried their dead in caves. Andrew Chamberlain reports Natural caves - dark, damp, often inhospitable places - might not appeal today as sites for burying the dead. Yet for much of prehistory, caves, fissures and rock shelters seem to have been favoured burial places in Britain and elsewhere. Many of the earliest hominid remains in Britain have been found in caves - such as the Neanderthal bones from Pontnewydd in North Wales, dating from c 225,000BC - suggesting the practice of cave burial is as old as humankind. Since the last Ice Age ended about 10,000 years ago, people appear to have been continuously buried in caves right up to the Iron Age and Romano-British period, with a single apparent gap in the Late Mesolithic between c 5900-3900BC, when no cave burials have been found. A recent programme of radiocarbon dates on human bones from caves suggests the practice was most common in the Neolithic. After c 3900BC - the start of the Neolithic period - the numbers of people buried in caves increased dramatically, just at the time when people began also to be buried in monuments such as chambered tombs and long barrows. In all, at least 256 individual Neolithic burials have been found in 70 caves in Britain, dated either directly or by association with Neolithic artefacts.

British Archaeology , no 19, November 1996: Features Finding magic in Stone Age real ale The first farmers may have grown barley to brew ale. Merryn Dineley reports Our traditional view of the Neolithic is that it was the period in which people first learned to grow cereal crops, such as barley, in order to make bread and porridge. In a recent article in British Archaeology , however, the archaeological scientist Mike Richards wrote that, on the evidence of bone analysis, meat was more important than grain in the British Neolithic diet ( `First farmers with no taste for grain' , March). He postulated an animal-based Neolithic economy, but pointed nevertheless to the evidence for small-scale grain production. This grain, he suggested, was grown for ritual purposes - but he hazarded no guesses as to what these rituals actually involved. Might the grain have been grown, in fact, for brewing ? And might ale have been a significant part of these rituals? My research suggests that brewing could well have been an important part of British Neolithic domestic and ritual life. We know that the Sumerians were making ale in the 3rd millennium BC and that the Egyptians were fermenting date wine and ale at a similar time. The Sumerians had a goddess of brewing, Ninkasi, and a tablet inscribed with a verse singing her praises has been found at Nippur, dated to c 1800BC. It seems to describe Sumerian brewing methods; and this `recipe' was followed by Solomon Katz and Fritz Maytag of the Anchor Breweries of California in 1991, producing a drinkable and effective brew that was aptly called `Ninkasi'. More recently, Scottish and Newcastle Breweries, in association with researchers from Cambridge University, made Tutankhamun Ale, again a drinkable and sweet brew.
