  • DATE WRITTEN:
  • READING TIME: 1 minute

With the success of the Roman Rural Settlement Project Conference in Reading this week, we are pleased to announce the project database is now live on ADS at http://dx.doi.org/10.5284/1030449

At the moment the database contains settlement and site morphology data for England only and Welsh settlement data will be added towards the end of the year.

Towards the end of 2016 finds and environmental data fields will be added and this will be the full and final version.

We will be gathering feedback on experiences of using the database over the next two years, so comments will be much appreciated. Please contact  Nathan Blick Nathan.blick@cotswoldarchaeology.co.uk
