British Archaeology Magazine

The warrior on our cover died around 50BC: our exclusive feature describes the original discovery and new research into a man who might have been a continental leader who fled to Britain ahead of Caesar’s advance. We look back at the 2010s and choose the top five sites, finds and infrastructure projects. Excavations on the continent and in Cambridgeshire throw light on late Roman and early medieval times. We tell the story of a blast furnace in Shropshire and its conservation, and we look at the debris washing out of Crosby beach that came from Liverpool after devastating bombing in the Second World War. Along with our annual Requiem celebrating lovers of antiquity, news, reviews, comment, listings and more, this is an issue packed with discovery and variety.
