{"product_id":"solent-thames-gill-hey-9780957467217","title":"Solent-Thames: Research Framework for the Historic Environment: Resource Assessments and Research Agendas","description":"The Solent-Thames region, comprising Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, is a recent combination of counties which provide a north-south transect across Central Southern England, and offer fresh insights into the past. Drawing upon county assessments, and written by eminent period specialists, this volume presents an overview of the current state of archaeological knowledge within this region from Palaeolithic times to the present day.\u003cbr\u003eThis region contains some of the most important sites in England: the remarkable early Mesolithic settlements along the Kennet valley, the hillfort at Danebury and its environs, the Roman town of Silchester and the cemetery of Lankhills, and the Saxon and medieval towns and cities of Southampton, Winchester and Oxford. Portsmouth houses arguably the most important ships in the naval history of Britain, and includes the best-preserved Tudor warship, the Mary Rose. Blenheim, seat of the Dukes of Marlborough, is a World Heritage site of international renown.\u003cbr\u003eFollowing the assessments are a series of research aims and priorities both for specific periods and for wider cross-period themes, an indispensable tool for anyone contemplating research in this region. It is one of a series covering the whole of England published with the support of English Heritage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gill Hey,Jill Hind\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0957467214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780957467217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford Archaeological Unit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/23\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.60h x 8.20w x 0.80d","brand":"Gill Hey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48441400590591,"sku":"9780957467217","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8621ea4d-cbba-43f1-b93d-eb28289b6fbd.jpg?v=1777190647","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/solent-thames-gill-hey-9780957467217","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
