Overview
What you will learn
The Roman Alchester to Anglo-Saxon Bicester - Development and Discovery course offered by University of Oxford reviews some of the most important results from all this work. We will focus on three topics in particular:
- The Late Iron Age landscape in which Alchester was built, originally as a Roman legionary fortress soon after the invasion of 43 AD.
- What was happening to the surroundings of the Roman small town, which was defended with walls in the 3rd century AD.
- The relationship between Alchester, which seems to have been abandoned at the end of the Roman period (remaining as a greenfield site to this day) and Anglo-Saxon Bicester, with its possible minster founded in the 7th century AD.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- Setting the scene
- Town and Country: archaeology and development around Bicester
- Iron Age settlement, Roman Roads and interesting buildings: excavation on the periphery of Alchester
- Alchester, Bicester and the East-West Rail archaeological project
- Roman Alchester and its environs in the light of recent work
