| 6. | Description | Abstract | This paper surveys the excavations of enclosures conducted at Hambledon Hill, Dorset on a site believed to have been build over a period of 400 years between 3600 and 3200 BC. In particular, it looks at an apparent shift of 'power-focus' from east to west in a sector that appears to have been a cultural and economic borderland and examines the different uses put to the enclosures themselves throughout the period. |
