In 2008, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Council for
British Archaeologys Wessex group, archaeologists gathered in
Southampton to review what we have learnt from the huge amount of
research carried out in the region during the past 50 years and to
identify the challenges for the next half-century. The conference
was also a chance for those involved to tell the exciting story of
discovery from their own, personal angle. The contributors to this
volume include many of the UKs most influential archaeologists of
the later 20th century, making this book an overview not only of
the history of Wessex, but of the development of archaeological
thinking and techniques during this period. Interspersed amongst
these papers are profiles of the regions most influential sites and
the memories of some of its leading characters.
