A study of tenure through analysis of land divisions in Bronze Age Dartmoor. Methods used include spatial analysis of land division and settlement patterns, metrological analysis, experimental reconstruction and synthesis of palaeoenvironmental, excavation and artefactual data. The findings suggest that tenure on Dartmoor was not an exclusive individual right, but involved inclusive claims and obligations held in persons and groups - in short that it should be seen more in terms of identity.
