For almost forty years the study of the Iron Age in Britain has
been dominated by Professor Sir Barry Cunliffe. Between the 1960s
and 1980s he led a series of large-scale excavations at famous
sites including the Roman baths at Bath, Fishbourne Roman palace,
and Danebury hillfort which revolutionized our understanding of
Iron Age society, and the interaction between this world of
"barbarians" and the classical civilizations of the Mediterranean.
His standard text on Iron Age Communities in Britain is in its
fourth edition, and he has published groundbreaking volumes of
synthesis on The Ancient Celts (OUP, 1997) and on the peoples of
the Atlantic coast, Facing the Ocean (OUP, 2001). This volume
brings together papers from more than thirty of Professor
Cunliffe's colleagues and students to mark his retirement from the
Chair of European Archaeology at the University of Oxford, a post
which he has held since 1972. The breadth of the contributions,
extending over 800 years and ranging from the Atlantic fringes to
the eastern Mediterranean, is testimony to Barry Cunliffe's own
extraordinarily wide interests.
