{"product_id":"landscape-settlement-and-society-in-simon-draper-9781841719764","title":"Landscape, Settlement and Society in Roman and Early Medieval Wiltshire","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a wide-ranging study of the southern English county of Wiltshire in the Roman and early medieval periods (c. 100-1100 AD), focusing on the key themes of landscape, settlement and society and using a combination of archaeological, topographical and historical evidence. Particular emphasis is given to place-names, which, it is argued, can help us to locate Romano-British settlements and inform us about the British survival in the post-Roman period. Early chapters tackle the transition between the Roman and Early Saxon periods, challenging current theories on the decline of Roman Britain and the Anglo-Saxon adventus. Subsequent chapters examine the evidence for early medieval territorial and ecclesiastical structure in Wiltshire, in addition to the Anglo-Saxon farming landscape. There is also detailed consideration of the origins of the medieval settlement pattern and a discussion of the relationship between settlements and the ranks of Anglo-Saxon society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon Draper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841719765\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841719764\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e British Archaeological Reports Oxford Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.69h x 8.27w x 0.49d","brand":"Simon Draper","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48088860524799,"sku":"9781841719764","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_587d5826-fa4c-4861-8f22-804eb20cea03.jpg?v=1769106942","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/landscape-settlement-and-society-in-simon-draper-9781841719764","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
