Download or read book The Iron Age in Northern Britain written by Dennis W. Harding and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-02-24 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Iron Age in Northern Britain examines the archaeological evidence for earlier Iron Age communities from the southern Pennines to the Northern and Western Isles and the impact of Roman expansion on local populations, through to the emergence of historically-recorded communities in the post-Roman period. The text has been comprehensively revised and expanded to include new discoveries and to take account of advanced techniques, with many new and updated illustrations. The volume presents a comprehensive picture of the ‘long Iron Age’, allowing readers to appreciate how perceptions of Iron Age societies have changed significantly in recent years. New material in this second edition also addresses the key issues of social reconstruction, gender, and identity, as well as assessing the impact of developer-funded archaeology on the discipline. Drawing on recent excavation and research and interpreting evidence from key studies across Scotland and northern England, The Iron Age in Northern Britain continues to be an accessible and authoritative study of later prehistory in the region.

Download or read book Art in the Eurasian Iron Age written by Courtney Nimura and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2020-02-28 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since early discoveries of so-called Celtic Art during the 19th century, archaeologists have mused on the origins of this major art tradition, which emerged in Europe around 500 BC. Classical influence has often been cited as the main impetus for this new and distinctive way of decorating, but although Classical and Celtic Art share certain motifs, many of the design principles behind the two styles differ fundamentally. Instead, the idea that Celtic Art shares its essential forms and themes of transformation and animism with Iron Age art from across northern Eurasia has recently gained currency, partly thanks to a move away from the study of motifs in prehistoric art and towards considerations of the contexts in which they appear. This volume explores Iron Age art at different scales and specifically considers the long-distance connections, mutual influences and shared ‘ways of seeing’ that link Celtic Art to other art traditions across northern Eurasia. It brings together 13 papers on varied subjects such as animal and human imagery, technologies of production and the design theory behind Iron Age art, balancing pan-Eurasian scale commentary with regional and site scale studies and detailed analyses of individual objects, as well as introductory and summary papers. This multi-scalar approach allows connections to be made across wide geographical areas, whilst maintaining the detail required to carry out sensitive studies of objects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facsimile reprint of a catalogue of the Ancient British and foreign-related collections which were on display at the British Museum in 1925, representing the period from about 500 BC to well beyond the Roman invasion of Britain. Split into two equal parts, the first considers all the evidence from continental Europe with particular attention to the La Tene and Hallstatt cultures; the second is devoted to the evolution of native British art and antiquities with much cross-referencing to their European counterparts.

Download or read book Iron Age Artefacts in Wales written by Caroline Martin and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 2003 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Investigation into the material culture of south-east Wales during the Pre-Roman Iron Age collates artefacts from chance finds, hoards and excavations to challenge the picture of Wales during this period as impoverished and a relatively unsophisticated backwater. Lists of items from the counties of Gwent and Glamorgan feature a large number of metal objects such as weapons, tools, coins and items of personal adornment, a fact which undoubtedly reflects the industriousness of metal-detectorists in the area. Although Martin does not claim that this is necessarily representative of Wales as a whole during the Iron Age, it does suggest that the evidence is there waiting to be revealed.

Download or read book Rethinking Celtic Art written by Duncan Garrow and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Early Celtic art' - typified by the iconic shields, swords, torcs and chariot gear we can see in places such as the British Museum - has been studied in isolation from the rest of the evidence from the Iron Age. This book reintegrates the art with the archaeology, placing the finds in the context of our latest ideas about Iron Age and Romano-British society. The contributions move beyond the traditional concerns with artistic styles and continental links, to consider the material nature of objects, their social effects and their role in practices such as exchange and burial. The aesthetic impact of decorated metalwork, metal composition and manufacturing, dating and regional differences within Britain all receive coverage. The book gives us a new understanding of some of the most ornate and complex objects ever found in Britain, artefacts that condense and embody many histories.

Download or read book The Celtic World written by Miranda Green and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Celtic World is a detailed and comprehensive study of the Celts from the first evidence of them in the archaeological and historical record to the early post-Roman period. The strength of this volume lies in its breadth - it looks at archaeology, language, literature, towns, warfare, rural life, art, religion and myth, trade and industry, political organisations, society and technology. The Celtic World draws together material from all over pagan Celtic Europe and includes contributions from British, European and American scholars. Much of the material is new research which is previously unpublished. The book addresses some important issues - Who were the ancient Celts? Can we speak of them as the first Europeans? In what form does the Celtic identity exist today and how does this relate to the ancient Celts? For anyone interested in the Celts, and for students and academics alike, The Celtic World will be a valuable resource and a fascinating read.
