A Prehistoric and Romano-British Landscape

A report on excavations carried out by the Birmingham University Field Archaeology Unit in the Valley of the River Tame in Staffordshire between 1997 and 1998. Their investigations revealed Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age barrows and Beaker burials in the north of the site and a later occupation phase from the Iron Age to the Roman period including evidence from pits, enclosures, environmental and artefactual evidence attesting to developments in agriculture, and trade and exchange networks.
