Fossils: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780192805041 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Fossils have been vital to our understanding of the formation of the earth and the origins of life. However, their impact has not been limited to debates about geology and evolution: attempts to explain their existence has shaken religion at its very roots, and they have remained a subject of ceaseless fascination for people of all ages and backgrounds. In this readable and wide-ranging book, Keith Thomson provides a remarkably all-encompassing explanation of fossils as a phenomenon. How did Darwin use fossils to support his theory of evolution? What are "living fossils"? What fossils will we...

ISBN: 9781495467370 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. We must respect the ruin and its presences for what they were. As we enter someone's familiar space, we must not bring an unfamiliarity to our exploration and expectations. Once inside that landscape, we are crossing perhaps multiple temporal and social boundaries. Space and time, as two fragmented walls, can inhibit our interactions with someone else's experiences and memories of that place. This is Centralia, as it was, and as its remains are visualized today.

Roman and Medieval Development South of Newgate: Excavations at 3-9 Newgate Street and 16-17 Old Bailey, City of London
ISBN: 9781901992588 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Important new evidence of Londons 2nd-century AD Roman pottery industry has been found along the western side of a tributary of the Walbrook stream. Up to eight kilns, producing Verulamium region white ware, and a probable potters workshop represent two phases of production. The findings indicate that much of the pottery thought to have been produced outside the settlement may come from these kilns. Pottery production went into decline in the second half of the 2nd century AD, though residual evidence was found of nearby glass working and other industries. Later Roman and medieval activity...

Tracks Through Time: Archaeology and History from the East London Line Project
ISBN: 9781901992878 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The East London Line Project presented a unique opportunity, as structures were demolished and cleared for London's latest railway, to discover more about some of London's earliest railways. This included previously undiscovered parts of one of the world's first operational passenger railways, the Eastern Counties of 1840. The new construction led to important archaeological discoveries, particularly at the site of Holywell Priory and beneath Bishopsgate Goods Yard in Shoreditch. The sparsely occupied hinterland of Roman London either side of Roman Ermine Street was used for occasional...

A Twelfth-Century Pottery Kiln at Pound Lane, Canterbury
ISBN: 9781870545075 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In 1986 a medieval pottery kiln was excavated at Pund Lane, Canterbury which appears to have been worked by a continental potter, perhaps a Norman, around the middle of the 12th century. The report contains a short account of the site and excavation, followed by a detailed account of the kiln itself and an extensive typology of the kiln products. The local, English and European contexts of the Ound Lane industry are examined and an attempt is made to define the likely homeland of the immigrant potter.

There is little to connect the two sites, other than them being less than a mile apart, with the site at Foxes Field principally comprising an early Roman-British rural settlement and late Romano-British burial ground; and the site at Rectory Meadows featuring...
