Later prehistoric enclosed site evidence of Southern Scotland : A study of the sites from Peeblesshire, Berwickshire and E. Dumfriesshire

This work studies the enclosed sites of Peeblesshire, Berwickshire and selected sites from E Dumfriesshire, Scotland. This area has seen very little interest in archaeological research in the past. The aim of the study was to examine the later prehistoric enclosed sites and to look at their landscape settings. From this data, possible settlement patterns can be observed, at both regional and local levels, and from these follow observations of enclosed sites together with their immediate terrain and archaeological features nearby, and from these an organised archaeological landscape can be seen, although it is a cumulative rather than a contemporary picture.
