Shop online at Wales-Direct.com Uncovering The Evidence Vikings At Llanbedrgoch But What Does It Mean? Historical sources record a series of terrifying attacks by Viking marauders from the last decade of the 8th century on the coasts of Britain, France and Ireland. In contrast to the other areas of Britain, Wales successfully resisted yielding land to these invaders. The first recorded raid occurred in 852 and annals record attacks by Vikings on Anglesey and Gwynedd from 854 onwards. We even know the names of some of the Vikings. The Viking leader Gorm was killed by Rhodri Mawr (ruler of Gwynedd 844-78) in 855. In 903 Ingimund led Vikings to Anglesey after they had been forcibly expelled from Dublin. According to both Irish and Welsh annals these Vikings were again expelled, and forced to sail on to Chester. The second half of the 10th century also witnessed frequent attacks on the island.

Uncovering The Evidence Vikings At Llanbedrgoch The settlement at Llanbedrgoch would appear to represent a new type-site for 9th/10th-century Wales - a low-lying, fortified multifunctional centre. The objects associated with the occupation of the enclosure provide important clues to the function of the the Viking Age settlement. The merchants' weights, fragments of silver and waste from craft activities such as antler working indicate that it formed part of the economy and politics of the area - as a component of Viking (Hiberno-Norse) activity in the Irish Sea. The site has produced evidence for farming in the 10th century (perhaps as an estate centre close to the best arable land), and it appears to have subsisted on mixed farming supplemented by fishing. Coin and other evidence suggests an early period of economic growth at Llanbedrgoch from the 7th century. In the 10th century, the settlement appears to have been at its peak, with harvesting of crops, keeping of livestock, the presence of artisans and craftsmen, and contact with Viking merchants arriving in ships. This coincides with the meteoric rise in the volume of minting at Chester, and growing contact with Man and Dublin. Some objects recovered from the enclosure bear the unmistakable mark of the Hiberno-Norse style typical of the Irish Sea area.

Extractions: David Michael Jones was born on November 1, 1895, in Kent, England, to parents of English and Welsh ancestry who encouraged his artistic endeavors and his early preoccupation with drawing. From 1909-1914, Jones studied drawing at the Camberwell Art School. He enlisted in the Royal Welsh Fusiliers in January, 1915, and served as a private on the Western Front from December, 1915, to March, 1918; this experience provided the basis for one of his major poetic works, In Parenthesis . After the war, Jones received a government grant to study drawing and painting at the Westminister School of Art, and his experience as a visual artist who also did engravings and illustrations influenced his poetry and his attempts to illustrate content through form. In 1921, Jones converted to Roman Catholicism. Jones' reliance on tradition and history, including Catholic and Welsh tradition and history, also influenced his writings. His works include The Anathemata The Dream of Private Clitus Epoch and Artist , and The Sleeping Lord . His awards include a Doctorate of Letters from the University of Wales, the Russell Loines Memorial Award for poetry from the American National Institute of Arts and Letters, and the Eisteddfod Gold Medal. Although he suffered a series of physical and mental breakdowns in the late 1920's, and later suffered from ill health and depression which his psychiatrist attempted to alleviate. Jones continued to write, and began doing radio broadcasts of his work. American publishers also began to issue copies of his poetry. He died on October 28, 1974, at Calvary Nursing Home.

Extractions: Issue 9, Spring 2002 The Year of Roman Middlewich! Early Nantwich In brief Acknowledgements ... Mailing List Heritage Lottery Grant for Cheshire Archaeology The SMR is the database of all the known archaeological sites and find spots in Cheshire, Halton and Warrington. It includes sites from prehistory to the post-medieval period, and is currently being extended to include industrial sites and military remains of the more recent past. It is used by planners, consultants, utilities, statutory bodies and archaeologists, as well as by researchers and the general public. It is maintained by archaeologists in the County Council's Environmental Planning Service, based at Backford Hall near Chester. Increasing access to SMRs is one of the HLF's five priority areas for archaeology and the project, Revealing Cheshire's Past, is the first of its kind in the North West. A survey of 400 people on the county's archaeology mailing list (see Cheshire Archaeology News Issue 8) demonstrated the demand for the project and suggested what it should include. Exhibitions aimed at audiences new to the heritage will tour museums, libraries and community venues around the county. Fact sheets will provide more detailed information on topics such as prehistoric and Roman Cheshire, Roman roads, historic towns, and an introduction to Cheshire's archaeology aimed at schools. A web site will summarise the archaeology of Cheshire, as well as providing information on recent discoveries in the county. And a Public Access database will provide access to individual records held in the SMR.

Extractions: the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority has a statutory duty to conserve the landscape. It employs a number of specialist staff including an archaeologist. The national park plan recognises that archaeological remains are important evidence of the past life of the landscape and its relationship with the peoples tat have occupied it. This applies not just to outstanding historical monuments such as castles or standing stones but to less obvious but equally significant landscape features such as patterns of field enclosure. The Brecon Beacons National Park contains an enormous variety of items of interests dating from prehistoric times through medieval times and including more recent evidence of the impact on our landscape of the Industrial Revolution. There are some 3700 recorded sites of which 256 are protected as scheduled ancient monuments. The

Extractions: Archaeology is the relation we maintain with the past. People experience things, appropriate them and produce a meaning for themselves. In this sense, archaeology is something that each of us routinely does: this we could call 'the archaeological imagination'. And there is increasingly a feeling that archaeology should include a defamiliarising of what is taken as given, revealing the equivocality of things and experiences: an attitude critical and suspicious of orthodoxy; an approach which embraces the im- possibility of any final account of things; a poetics of the past; a practice sensual, subjective and phenomenological - making sense of things that were never certain or sure in the first place. Which is why I found little in the authorised presentations on the development of vocal technique in English theatre and much in the autobiographical account/demonstration by Roberta Carreri of her years at Odin Teatret, half-remembered, part-fictionalised, always embodied. In considering points of contact between archaeology and the voice, three interlocking notions come to mind: the voice in the past, the voice
