THE BRITISH BRICK SOCIETY
The Society, founded in 1972, promotes the study and recording of all aspects of the archaeology and history of bricks, brickmaking and brickwork. Members are drawn from many backgrounds - geologists, archaeologists, schoolteachers, artists, historians, brickmakers, bricklayers, architects, engineers, etc. Some have a professional interest in a particular aspect of the subject, for others membership is an extension of a general interest or hobby. All share a fascination for the history and development of the manufacture and use of bricks. There are currently about 300 members in the United Kingdom with overseas members in, for example: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, South Africa, Switzerland and the United States of America. The Society's newsletter, "INFORMATION", mailed to members three times each year, features articles and reports of interest to members with accounts of Society, and member activities. Regular visits are organized to buildings, towns, archaeological sites and brickworks. One such visit is organised in conjunction with the June Annual General Meeting.

Programme Links Want to Know More: Marine Archaeology If you are interested in becoming involved with marine archaeology, then the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) offers divers a chance to become involved with wreck investigation. The wrecks of two protected 17th Century warships in the Sound of Mull - the Swan and the Dartmouth - can be visited by divers by arrangement with the NAS Training Officer at the Lochaline Diving Centre in Scotland. The NAS runs a variety of practical courses ranging from a basic introduction to nautical archaeology to the skills of surveying, drawing, and taking photographs above or below the water. More advanced techniques which can be learned include the use of equipment such as magnetometers, side-scan sonar, and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). The NAS can be contacted on 01705 818419. There are number of wrecks in British waters which are designated as historic wrecks. These may not be dived except under licence. The Historic Wreck map shows the location of some protected wrecks around Britain such as the Swan and the Dartmouth.

The theme of this symposium involves the ethics of archaeology practiced in the Maya region of Mexico and northern Central America concerning its impact on living Maya peoples. November 1417, 2002 at the University of british Columbia, Vancouver, BC.
http://ethical.arts.ubc.ca/Introduction.html
Towards a More Ethical Mayanist Archaeology Introduction Description Preliminary Program Speakers and Abstracts ... Home Introduction The theme of this symposium involves the ethics of archaeology practiced in the Maya region of Mexico and northern Central America concerning its impact on living Maya peoples. While archaeologists are making great strides in negotiating with local Maya communities concerning labor relations and potential infrastructure and touristic development, there has been very little recognition by archaeologists that interpretations of ancient Maya society developed in North America and disseminated through popular and academic media worldwide potentially impact on living Maya. While archaeological investigation of the Maya region over the last century has revealed the artistic, scientific, and engineering achievements of Maya people, interpretations have tended to depict the Maya in a one-dimensional, distorted, even caricatured manner, whether as peaceful priests or as savage warriors. A number of critiques of this discourse produced over the past two decades have noted that these interpretations are grounded primarily in concerns of the archaeologists' society, particularly those of the United States. What has not been sufficiently explored is that these distortions are also the consequence of excluding Maya voices in the act of interpretation, and consequently these distortions lack sensitivity to the concerns and identity of living Maya peoples, many of whom find such interpretations both degrading and politically dangerous. The purpose of the symposium is therefore to include a variety of Maya voices and concerns, and to begin to imagine what kind of Mayanist archaeology would foreground the long-term political goals of many Maya People.

Canhasan Sites 2: Canhasan I: The Pottery
David French
Published August 2005
British Institute at Ankara Monograph 32
ISBN 1 898249 16 4; ISSN 0969-9007
In this volume, Dr French, the excavator of Canhasan and for many years Director of the British Institute at Ankara, carefully and concisely presents both the plain and decorated wares, with detailed descriptions of their characteristic fabrics, shapes and decoration. There is a full catalogue of the best-preserved and most important pieces (which were registered finds), but a major feature of the volume are the drawings of over 2,500 less well-preserved pieces, which illustrate all the characteristic shapes and types of decoration.
A special feature of the study is a careful grading of the material in terms of chronological reliability. The author privileges the whole, or nearly whole, pots found on floors in each layer, as the only types which were certainly made at the time. Related pottery may be accepted as contemporary, but with less certainty, while unrelated wares must be treated with circumspection, for they may be either recycled from an earlier layer or intrusive from a later one. This rigorous methodology means that the Canhasan pottery provides a completely reliable relative chronology through the Chalcolithic period, and the volume will remain a basic reference for Near Eastern archaeology.

Visiting Silchester
The Roman Town is open to visitors all year round. During the Field School season visitors are welcome to visit the Insula IX excavation. See Visitor Info for more details on visiting the site.
Site vs website
Are you confused about what we call the 'site'? Where we refer to the site, we mean the archaeological site. To avoid confusion, we call the website the website. The 'Town Life' project is a research and training excavation of one part of the large Roman town at Silchester. The purpose of the excavation is to trace the site's development from its origins before the Roman Conquest to its abandonment in the fifth century A.D. The Roman name for Silchester was Calleva Atrebatum which denotes its role as the centre of the territory of the Atrebates, one of the major late Iron Age tribes in southern Britain.

The Roman Shipwrecks Project
Principal Investigators: JD Hill, M Walsh J.Dix , and J.Adams
Evidence that Roman wrecks do in fact exist in British waters comes in the form of considerable quantities of continental pottery recovered in the nets of fishermen working in inshore waters although the sources of this material remain unidentified.
Fig. 1 Samian ware from Pudding Pan - part of the Townley collection at the British Museum This project intends to conduct detailed surveys of three areas from which Roman material has been recovered in order to locate the sources. The surveys will combine the latest high-resolution marine geophysical survey techniques with diver surveys. The areas identified include an area off the North Kent coast at Herne Bay known as Pudding Pan or Pan Sand, the approaches to St Peter Port harbour in Guernsey, and an additional area yet to be chosen from the results of a survey of Roman material recovered by fishermen. Current work is focussed on Pudding Pan/Pan Sands.
