This volume presents the results of a systematic study of the
ruins of the large Roman courtyard villa at Castle Copse, located
near the village of Great Bedwyn, in southwest England. These
efforts have shed light not only on the history of the villa
itself, but also on the shifting focus of power over the course of
a millennium at the sites associated with Castle Copse in the
immediate region the Iron Age hillfort of Chisbury, a post-Roman
settlement, and a Saxon village destined to become an urban
center.
In addition to a complete survey of the site, its topography,
geology, hydrology, and stratigraphy, this book includes studies of
the architecture, mosaics, wall painting, and numerous artifacts
and animal remains found at the site. There are also overviews of
the history and geography of the region around the site, twelve
technical appendixes, and hundreds of detailed illustrations."
