SUMMARY:Archaeologies of animality: how animals shaped Iron Age and Romano-British landscapes
DESCRIPTION:Dr Adrian Chadwick \nTrackways were an important component of many Iron Age and Roman-period rural landscapes in Britain. They linked settlement enclosures and led to fields and areas of pasture. Such features not only indicate the economic significance of livestock and pastoralism but also the importance of routine herding journeys during periods when landscape inhabitation and tenure are usually assumed to be static and permanent\, focused on specific tracts of land. \nRoutes of trackways were ingrained into the muscle memories of people and animals\, and the social memories of communities\, and animal herds and flocks. People would have been alert to the movements\, moods\, and motivations of their beastly charges\, matching their pace and bodily dispositions to those of livestock. Animals too would have partly shaped the trackways\, fields\, funnels\, enclosures and pens through their behaviour. \nIn this presentation\, Dr Chadwick will explore how the interrelationships of people and animals\, their shared experience of movement and memory\, resulted in the creation of the agricultural landscapes of Iron Age and Roman-period Britain

SUMMARY:The Curious Case of Achill Henge: Investigating the Strange Desire to Replicate a Wiltshire Landmark
DESCRIPTION:Dr Stuart Rathbone \nIn this talk\, Stuart Rathbone\, former Director of Field Work for the Achill Archaeological Field School\, tells the story of how the island gained an illegal replica of Stonehenge\, explores the wider phenomenon of making reconstructions of Stonehenge\, and asks if there is anything we can learn from the whole debacle. \nAchill Island in County Mayo in Western Ireland features a wide range of archaeological sites\, including Neolithic Tombs\, Bronze Age Houses and field systems\, Iron Age Promontory Forts\, Early Medieval Ringforts and Kilns\, a fine Tower House\, post-medieval rural settlements\, and several 19th and 20th century naval facilities. In November 2011 these existing sites were joined by a full size\, and illegally constructed\, concrete-built replica of the outer sarsen ring of Stonehenge. The then director of fieldwork at the Achill Archaeological Field school felt rather obliged to do something about the newly appeared structure\, but it was unclear what an appropriate response would be? Traditional recording of the site proved entertaining but far from enlightening. Less traditional techniques provided useful insights into how archaeologists respond to genuine Neolithic sites\, and raised serious questions about how archaeologically informed the creator of the replica may have been. These investigations led to a wider review of the phenomenon of replicating Stonehenge\, and a wide range of motivations were identified.

SUMMARY:The Archaeology of Shetland's Sea Roads
DESCRIPTION:Esther Renwick and Marc Chivers \nShetland’s location and the geography of its island archipelago has meant that for most of the 6000 years that people have lived here a seafaring culture has prevailed. This is reflected in the archaeological record where strong cultural links can be seen with mainland UK and Norway. Until recently\, everybody used small boats for local transport and communication\, but today\, boat culture is an important part of Shetland’s heritage not a lived experience for modern communities. \nIn this talk\, archaeologist Esther Renwick and boat historian Marc Chivers\, both long-time Shetland residents\, will examine the traditional boat culture in Shetland and look at some of the archaeological evidence that helps us build a more complete seaward\, rather than landward narrative of an almost lost way of life.

SUMMARY:The Peebles Hoard
DESCRIPTION:Emily Freeman\, Treasure Trove Scotland \nIn June\, a metal detectorist near Peebles uncovered one of the most significant Late Bronze Age hoards ever found in Scotland. Comprising fittings from an elaborate horse harness and a sword\, this find will provide an insight into Bronze Age society and connections with the wider world. Emily Freeman\, manager of Treasure Trove in Scotland\, will discuss the Treasure Trove process and series of events from initial discovery to the eventual block lift.
