The Bronze Age in the Severn Estuary

Focusing on the Bronze Age, this volume by Professor Martin Bell documents archaeological findings in the Severn Estuary, particularly at Redwick and Peterstone. Key discoveries include a settlement with well-preserved timber structures and evidence of human and animal activity. The book examines the interplay between wetland and dry ground settlements through various analyses, revealing patterns of transhumance. In the concluding chapters, Bell compares these findings with other Bronze Age coastal sites in Britain and Europe, highlighting broader historical connections.
