The Ouse valley, East Sussex, is a key communication route from the
Channel coast, via the Downs (and the historic county town of
Lewes), to the wide expanse of the Weald. It traverses and
encompasses landscapes and archaeological sites of both regional
and national importance - all connected by the river Ouse and its
valley. This is the first review of the archaeology of this
important landscape - from Palaeolithic to medieval times by
contributors all routed in the archaeology of Sussex. Binding
together the archaeology is a review of the geoarchaeology and
palaeo-environment following which the chapters document the
collective archaeology and potential from the Palaeolithic of
Boxgrove vs Piltdown, via Mesolithic archaeology from the textbook
excavations of Grahame Clark to recent 21st century investigations.
Monuments of causewayed enclosures, long barrows and round barrows
represent some of the Neolithic and Bronze Age evidence with some
extraordinary finds recorded in the Bronze Age. From hillforts and
villas, to medieval rural and urban excavation; the Ouse valley
represents a microcosm of the wider region, the contributions
collectively reveal the importance and significance of this valley
to the development of landscape history and society of a
quintessential English county. The narrative concludes with the
first detailed research agenda for the Ouse valley.
Discovered in 1811, Bignor is one of the richest and most
impressive villas in Britain, its mosaics ranking among the finest
in north-western Europe. Opened to the public for the first time in
1814, the site also represents one of Britain's earliest tourist
attractions, remaining in the hands of the same family, the
Tuppers, to this day. This book sets out to explain the villa, who
built it, when, how it would have been used and what it meant
within the context of the Roman province of Britannia. It also sets
out to interpret the remains, as they appear today, explaining in
detail the meaning of the fine mosaic pavements and describing how
the villa was first found and explored and the conservation
problems facing the site in the twenty-first century. Now, after
200 years, the remarkable story of Bignor Roman Villa is told in
full in this beautifully illustrated book.
