Description

BOOK DESCRIPTION
Reports on an excavation programme developed by the Dyfed Archaeological Trust following its formation in 1975. The concentration of enclosures in the south-west of Wales was a well-known phenomenon, but their origins and development were poorly understood. The excavations showed activity from the Early Bronze Age to the post-Roman period. The volume presents seven sites in detail and considers the nature, function and status of the enclosures as well as the sequence and economy of the sites as a whole.
