Full Description
This volume is the second to be published on the excavations undertaken by the Oxford Archaeological Unit at Butler's Field, Lechlade in 1985. The project was initially conceived as a small element in a larger project to investigate the prehistoric and Roman landscape in the Lechlade-Fairford area and the discovery of a substantial Anglo-Saxon cemetery was unexpected. Volume 1, published in 1998, discussed the prehistoric and Roman activity and provided a summary of the Anglo-Saxon archaeology. Volume 2 is designed to complement volume 1 and presents the specialist reports on the Anglo-Saxon artefacts and related environmental material, the technical analyses and an overall discussion of the cemetery.
