Riversides: Neolithic Barrows, a Beaker Grave, Iron Age and Anglo-Saxon Burials

The 2010\u201311 excavations along Trumpington\u2019s riverside proved extraordinary on a number of accounts. Particularly for its \u2018dead\u2019, as it included Neolithic barrows (one with a mass interment), a double Beaker grave and an Early Anglo-Saxon cemetery, with a rich bed-burial interment in the latter accompanied by a rare gold cross. Associated settlement remains were recovered with each. Most significant was the site\u2019s Early Iron Age occupation. This yielded enormous artefact assemblages and was intensively sampled for economic data, and the depositional dynamics of its pit clusters are interrogated in depth. Not only does the volume provide a summary of the development of the now widely investigated greater Trumpington/ Addenbrooke\u2019s landscape \u2013 including its major Middle Bronze Age settlements and an important Late Iron Age complex \u2013 but overviews recent fieldwork results from South Cambridgeshire. Aside from historiographical-themed Inset sections.
