Study Day: The Binstead Medieval Pottery
Dr Ben Jervis, Reader in Archaeology at Cardiff University Education Room at Worthing Museum The Binsted pottery, a nationally important assemblage of medieval pottery, was excavated by WAS from the kiln sites at Binsted during the 1960s and again in 2006-7. The finds were stored in Worthing Museum. During the summers of 2018/9 members of WAS were involved recording the assemblage for analysis at Cardiff University led by Dr Ben Jervis. We are delighted to have Ben Jervis back at the Museum on 7th May. He will begin the day with an introductory talk which will include a review of the results of the analysis. This will be followed by a handling session of the Binsted Pottery. After lunch there will be a second session with examination of the pottery and Ben will give more general talk about medieval pottery production and consumption. There will be time for questions after both talks. Coffee and tea and biscuits will be available as per the agenda below. Bring your own lunch to eat inside or in the Museum garden. Alternatively, there are cafes nearby. 10:30 - 15:30 hrs The fee is £25 for WAS members and £30 non-members. To book your place please fill in form below. |

Lecture: Old and New Discoveries on the Burpham Downs James Sainsbury, Archaeologist and Historian - Curator of Archaeology at Worthing Museum “The investigations I've been conducting with my group north of the village - as well as a look at older sites and finds from that area. The main focus will be on the Romano- British period.” *** Online Lecture ***
Lecture: Angmering St Nicholas Excavations re-visited Amie Friend, Member of WAS Field Team and founder of Time Seekers - History and Archaeology Education for Schools and Museums Study Day Seminar: English Coins and Tokens 600-1600 AD
David Rudling Education Room at Worthing Museum, half day, 9:30am-12:30pm David will talk about the development of coinage from Saxon to early post-medieval times, their design and purpose as propaganda tools as well as instruments of trade, and also the issue of private tokens and jetsons. The coins and tokens found during the WAS excavation at the Malthouse Field, Sompting, will also be inspected. The Con Ainsworth Memorial Lecture: Excavation and research in the
Goodwood Area, from the Lower Palaeolithic to Post-Medieval: an update Mark Roberts, Archaeologist. Tutor for Fieldwork and Principle Research Fellow of UCL Institute of Archaeology, Honorary Fellow of West Dean College. “I would be both delighted and honoured to give the Con Ainsworth Memorial Lecture. I don't know if you are aware of this but it was Con who started me off in archaeology whilst I was a sixth form student. I was his gardener in Goring and it was he who convinced me to start and stay in archaeology rather than pursuing a career in the armed forces. He and Ena often invited me and my team over to theirs for supper when we were working at Boxgrove during the long winters in the early part of the project; I cannot tell you how much we looked forward to these trips out” *** Online Lecture ***
Lecture: The Sompting EPIC Project - Landscape and People Connie Shirley & Bob Turner, Members of WAS Field and Finds Team In 2020, WAS were invited by OART to fieldwalk and then excavate on the EPIC site in Sompting. The EPIC project included farmland being converted to a country park and a new course established for the stream running through the area. The struck flints recovered give a clue to the landscape and how it was used in prehistory. |

Lecture: The Material Culture of Medieval Rural Households Ben Jervis University of Cardiff This talk gave an overview of the findings of the recently completed project 'Living Standards and Material Culture in English Rural Households, 1300-1600', which combined historical and archaeological data to investigate the possessions of non-elite households in this period. The talk revealed the diversity of objects acquired by rural households, including cooking equipment, tableware, bedding and furniture, and explored some of the factors which influenced the consumption habits of medieval households. *** Online Lecture ***
Lecture: Threats to Our Heritage: defending our heritage, past, present and future Daryl Holter Sussex Heritage Community Some take our past heritage for granted; some forget it is amongst our present. We walk on it, drive through it and fly over it. To many I have met it brings belief, understanding, feeling, depth, culture and emotion. A sense of community, ownership, tradition and belonging. It is tangible, it has mystery, it is constant and priceless. When it falls victim to abuse it is all our moral responsibility to protect our past. It is our future generations that should have opportunity to rediscover experience and interpret the old and the new. We are but a custodian of a rich heritage that tells of our journey. Together describes the action needed to preserve our past. Together bonds us as a community, a group or a family. Communities are what hold us together, they watch over our heritage.

Lecture: The SOE in WW2 and Nancy Wake Amie Friend Archaeologist and Teacher Following the evacuation of troops from Dunkirk in 1940, England and the new Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, were facing a desperate struggle for freedom. In the light of the ever-growing threat from Nazi Germany, Churchill formed and tasked a new organisation with an extraordinary mission: To set Europe ablaze. In this lecture we follow the story of one of this shadowy organisations most enigmatic and enthusiastic members. This is the incredible story of Nancy Wake. *** Online Lecture ***
Lecture: Researching the life of a bridge: Old Swan Bridge and the Arun river crossing at Pulborough, ancient and modern John Mills Archaeologist WSCC and President of Worthing Archaeological Society How do you research the history and changing life of an ordinary small local road bridge?

Lecture: Emergence of People into the Americas Robert Turner, Archaeologist and Astronomer This is a view of the archaeology of North America and how the influx of Europeans in 1460 changed a stone age culture. Before Columbus there was no written history so the picture of North America is a mixture of racial memory and the remains the early peoples left behind. Members can view the lecture live on the WAS Facebook Group page at 7:30 pm on Tuesday 8th December and a recording will be available there subsequently. *** Online Lecture ***
Lecture: Primitive Currencies and the Origins of Coinage Dr David Rudling, Academic Director of the Sussex School of Archaeology This talk began with a global review of various types of 'primitive'/tribal currencies, such as cowrie shells in ancient China, the stone money of Yap Island, the kina shells of New Guinea, the iron kissi pennies of West Africa, and wampum beads of native North Americans. We then turned to the independent origins of coinage in China, India and Asia Minor, and the adoption of coinage in Europe.

The John Pull Memorial Lecture: An Archaeological Childhood in Sussex, Dr Janet Pennington
Janet grew up in the post-World War II years looking at the ground – daughter of Sussex archaeologists Eric and Hilda Holden. Most of her early memories are of Sussex history, field-walking with her parents and observing, later taking part in, archaeological excavations all over Sussex. This talk takes us back to a more peaceful time with little traffic, no health and safety, and when every outing seemed to be tinged with excitement and mystery. To be held in The Gordon Room, Stoke Abbott Rd, Worthing BN11 1HA, 7:30pm. Venue open 7pm for notices, coffee and chat, lectures start at 7:30pm and finish at 8:30pm. Lecture: Recent Excavation at Blacksmiths Corner, Paul Mason
Paul Mason, from A.S.E., will talk about their recent Excavation in the fields North-West of ‘our’ Walberton Villa at Blacksmiths Corner. Lecture: Fishbourne Roman Wildlife Park: new questions from old bones, Professor Naomi Sykes
Over the last 20 years Fishbourne’ s animal remains have been subject to large-scale reinvestigation through a series of projects funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. This talk by Professor Naomi Sykes will present the results of this work, highlighting their importance for our understanding of the past but also their significance for modern international animal conservation policy. The Archaeology of Death and Commemoration - from Neolithic tombs to Commonwealth war grave cemeteries, attitudes to the deceased can be literally set in stone - Simon Stevens
Lecture: The Portable Antiquities Scheme, Carolina Rangel de Lima, Finds Liaison Officer - Sussex
The PAS promotes best practice by finders, landowners, archaeologists and museums in the discovery, recording and conservation of finds made by the public. Carolina is the Finds Liaison Officer for Sussex and will talk about some of the recent finds recorded in our area. She may also bring along a selection of artefacts for handling at the end of the session. The Con Ainsworth Memorial Lecture: The Malthouse Fields at Sompting–Investigation of Building Remains, Connie Shirley
Worthing Archaeological Society have investigated the building remains in Sompting Paddocks which may be part of a malthouse and farm complex known to be on this site in the 17th Century. Excavations have taken place over three years and a chalk-lined well and further flint walls have been found. Finds recovered include pre-historic flints and pottery from the late Neolithic to the present day. We present a review of the site in the landscape and findings to date. A Day School on Food and Feasting with Judie English
The day was held at the idyllic Downs Barn, Sompting between 10am and 4pm. We will look at food and feasting from the days of Homo Neanderthalensis to the Late Medieval/ Early Tudor period and will consider the relationships between food and social culture. ‘Feasting’ usually involves food provided in surplus and consumed wastefully. The giver both proves his wealth and status by accessing exotic ingredients and having them made into dishes which show that he has good taste and employs the best chefs, and creates a debt owed by his guests. Having demonstrated his superiority those guests either have to reciprocate in kind (or even better him) or accept public humiliation. Feasts are often part of socially important events – marriage treaties for example.' 
Sompting Malthouse Field Dig
WAS Field Unit will be returning to the Malthouse Field in Sompting. 
Late Iron Age and Roman Period Pottery Day Course with Gordon Hayden , Roman Pottery Specialist
The course will concentrate on the identification, production and use of pottery found in West Sussex, from the last decades of the Late Iron Age and throughout the Roman period (c. 10BC until AD410). Using presentations and handling, the most common types of pottery will be studied with the aim of differentiating between local, regional and imported pottery. To be held in The Education Room at Worthing Museum, 10 am to 4 pm. Medieval Building Stones in Parish Churches of the Worthing Area - Roger Cordiner and Anthony Brook
Indigenous and imported building stones have been recorded in 316 Medieval churches in Sussex, including Chichester Cathedral and a number of ruined churches where building stone is still visible. This lecture concentrates on the building stones of 55 Medieval Parish churches in the Worthing area, covering 4, 10km grid squares, which includes the area between the Rivers Arun and Adur from the coast to the southern margin of the Low Weald. 
AGM at 7.00pm followed by Lecture at 7.30pm
The Clandon Park Project - Tom Dommett This talk will consider the challenges of archaeological salvage, restoration and the rebuilding of The National Trust property Clandon House in Surrey after the devastating fire of 2015. Tom is the Regional Archaeologist for the National Trust and archaeological adviser for the project, which has been using a combination of excavation and advanced survey techniques to document the structure and learn more about its history and development with a view to future restoration. BHAS investigations of medieval remains in Hog Croft, Ovingdean - John Skelton
Hog Croft is a pasture adjacent to the medieval Church of St Wulfran, Ovingdean. BHAS have conducted investigations in this field since the 1990s and these culminated in a four year dig from 2014 to 2017. The field is rich in archaeology and has long been thought to be the site of a Norman manorial complex. The recent excavations revealed evidence of an earlier Saxon community. As well as large amounts of pottery and bone the site has also given up some intriguing objects of special significance. The John Pull Memorial Lecture |

There are almost seventy islands in the Orkney archipelago, mostly formed by rocks of the Middle Old Red Sandstone. This stone splits easily along clear bedding planes and presents little difficulty in quarrying, and has been used for building purposes for the last six thousand years on the islands, and helped in the preservation the archaeology. The talk will discuss monuments of the Neolithic period, looking at the development of the various chambered tombs, domestic settlements, and the ceremonial heartland of Orkney, including excavations at the Ness of Brodgar. Sussex Flint Mines and the early Neolithic Whitehawk Causewayed Enclosure in Brighton - Jon Sygrave
Jon Sygrave is the Project Manager of Archaeology South-East (Centre for Applied Archaeology of the Institute of Archaeology at University College London).

Planning and section drawing training with Bob Turner at the Malthouse dig, Sompting
This was a special training day led by Bob Turner on site at our Malthouse dig. The training was divided into two sections, running concurrently: one for complete beginners and the other, for those who have already done some planning and section drawing to improve their skills. Bob gave instructions on both planning and section drawing making use of the dig’s open trenches, the very best place to learn. This was an ideal opportunity for both beginners and those with some knowledge to learn in a real archaeological environment.

Study day: Ice Age in Europe - Matt Pope
Dr Matt Pope FSA MCIfA, Principal Research Associate and Senior Teaching Fellow in Palaeolithic Archaeology at U.C.L. The record of human occupation in Europe now extends well beyond a million years and involves multiple species of humans in apparently successive waves of colonisation, from the Near East, Africa and Asia. Europe has always presented challenges to early humans, forested in warm periods and intensely cold and seasonal in the cold ‘glacial stages’ it required adaptation by species initially more suited to open and lightly forested tropical grasslands. In this day course we’ll cover the archaeological record of successive human species: Homo antecessor, Home heidelbergensis, Homo neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens. We’ll explore the evidence for changes in behaviour including hunting, use of fire, processing organic materials and consider how the British record differs from that of other continental regions. The course will familiarise you with basic concept about climate and environmental change, stone age technology and latest theories surrounding human evolution. Fieldwalk: Fittleworth
WAS members have the opportunity to take part in a joint fieldwalk near Fittleworth, West Sussex with Chichester & District AS. The field has so far produced a number of good quality Mesolithic and Neolithic flintwork.This is scheduled to start on Saturday, 17thFebruary and continue through to Sunday, 25th February, which is likely to be a much greater window than needed. With a good number of walkers and reasonable weather it should be completed in a few days but it does mean that days can be cancelled if the weather is dire. Lecture: Bridge Farm 2011 to 2017 - Rob Wallace and David Millum
Worthing Library Lecture Theatre 7:30-9pm Rob Wallace and David Millum, the directors of the Culver Archaeological Project, will give a summary of their excavations of the Romano–British settlement at Bridge Farm, near Barcombe Mills, discovered in 2011 during a geophysical survey for Margary’s London-Lewes road. They will include a brief background to CAP as well and some initial thoughts about how this 1st to 4th century settlement fits into the wider context of south-east Britain in the Roman period and why it qualified for earthwork defences during the late 2nd century. The talk will cover the first 7 years of what looks destined to be a very long and regionally important investigation. John Pull Lecture Lecture: The First Brexit How Britain became an island and its effect on Neanderthals, Mesolithic and Neolithic Man - Robert Turner
Over the past 460,000 years Britain has been separated from Europe several times with the final split in 6,200 BC when the disaster of Dogger Land had a great effect into the Mesolithic peoples of that time. Recent discoveries by Imperial College London, operating from Littlehampton, have now been able to draw a picture of "what leaving Europe" meant in times past. Lecture: The life of a common soldier in the English Civil War - Nigel Rumble
The clothes, weapons and accoutrements used by a soldier in England in the 1640's in his daily life. I will also briefly cover the make up of the armies and talk a very small amount about battle tactics. The talk will be illustrated with (mostly) reproduction clothing and equipment and explanations of their use; there will be an opportunity at the end to examine these items more closely. Half day school: Place-names and Archaeology in Sussex - Judie English
Judie will discuss Place-names in the Landscape and how they were derived. Coffee and tea will be provided during a short mid morning break. Lecture: Evidence for Saxons in post-Roman Sussex - James Sainsbury
Worthing Library Lecture TheatreArchaeology is the key driver in uncovering evidence for Germanic settlement in Sussex during the decline of the Western Roman Empire. The historical documents are few and unreliable, though arguably should not be dismissed outright. This talk will look at some key 5th and 6th century Saxon burial and settlement sites in the county, along with documents, chance finds and new genetic research in an attempt to piece together the birth of the kingdom of Sussex. James will be bringing some finds from the Highdown Cemetery for handling after his talk. Walk: around historic Littlehampton with Cheryl Hutchins

Lecture: Iron Age Memory vs. Roman Metaphor; re-reading the archaeology of a Client Kingdom - Gordon Hayden
What was the immediate impact of the Roman Conquest in Hampshire and West Sussex? The lecture will highlight some continuation of Iron Age traditions and how they interplayed with incoming ideas and practices. It will also propose an alternative hypothesis as to why Fishbourne Palace was built. Study day: led by David McOmish: " Making Sense of Monuments: Landscape Archaeology of Sussex: The Bronze Age"
David McOmish, a Senior Archaeological Investigator with English Heritage and a leading British Prehistorian, has, among numerous other achievements, made several large scale landscape studies of the South Downs. Some of you may remember last year he gave us a wonderful study day which took us up to the end of the Neolithic. This day is likely to prove just as popular. |
