The West Midlands is a region of geographical, topographical and
geological contrasts, forming disparate landscapes that are
reflected in the nature and diversity of its rich archaeology. This
ranges from evidence of its prehistory to the important industrial
heritage of its major conurbations. This book represents an attempt
by the region's archaeologists to draw these varying archaeological
landscapes together to produce a research framework and agenda for
their future management. This is based on a comprehensive
evaluation of the archaeological resource and has allowed new
research directions to be followed and gaps in our knowledge to be
filled. The book is arranged chronologically, each chapter
addressing the important themes identified within each period. The
colour images illustrate different aspects of the archaeology of
the West Midlands and also include a series of distribution maps
produced from data held in the region's Sites and Monuments Records
and Historic Environment Records. The research agenda is an
invaluable tool not only for those interested or involved in the
archaeology of the West Midlands but also for those working in
other regions, adding another important piece to the archaeological
jigsaw of the British Isles and helping us to see the archaeology
of the West Midlands more prominently in its wider context.
