Cartimandua’s Capital?: The late Iron Age Royal Site at Stanwick, North Yorkshire, Fieldwork and Analysis 1981-2011
Famous for the excavations carried out by Sir Mortimer Wheeler in 1951-52, the late Iron Age earthwork complex at Stanwick, North Yorks, is the largest prehistoric site in northern England. The site was probably the seat of the Brigantian queen Cartimandua, and both the structures and the finds from the site reflect this status. A recent re-evaluation of the radiocarbon dates has led to a new chronology which has rewritten our understanding of late Iron Age Britain. This volume reports not only on the excavations of the 1980s, but also synthesises other work in the environs of the site.
