Multi-periodThe only long-occupied, multi-layered settlement among the Bronze Age sites of the Bor-Zaječar region. Located on the hill named "spa rock" above Gamzigradska Banja, looking west across the Crni Timok valley toward Gamzigrad. Together with the Magura cemetery on a nearby hill, Banjska Stena is a site typical of the Gamzigrad culture.

Neolithic and Bronze AgeA Late Neolithic tell settlement - one of the most important centres of the of the Tisza culture (5000-4500 BCE). Excavations produced the famous 'Szegvar idol' (pictured) - a seated clay figure holding a sickle, interpreted as a harvest deity or ancestral figure. Also known as the 'God of Szegvar', this is now in the www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=64023 Mora Ferenc Museum in Szeged.

Iron Age and Later PrehistoryThe earthwork and buried remains of this Iron Age hillfort lie to the west of Bockmer Lane, occupying a commanding position on the end of a spur overlooking the village of Medmenham to the south and the broad valley of the River Thames. The circuit of defences is roughly pear-shaped in plan, measuring approximately 350m north to south, and 300m across its wider, northern end.

Neolithic and Bronze AgeLocated on a public footpath near Moylgrove and definitely worth a visit. It is variously described as a burial chamber, dolmen or cromlech. At a distance it resembles a sort of alien craft from outer space, but closer up it is a huge lump of stone standing on three smaller uprights.

Springs and Holy WellsA legend associated with this well will be familiar to many - the story goes that the landowner didn't like people visiting the well and filled it in. The well's water then started to arise through his house, so he re-opened it! More details in Anne's comment below. The present structure is Victorian. It is found along a path to the left of the church.

Multi-periodLarger scale excavation work began in June this year, with archaeologists looking to understand more about the Roman foundations present on the site. Excavations here in 2009 revealed signs of a prehistoric hunting camp from the end of the last Ice Age and a high-status Roman building. The speculation is that the building was a bath house, which is certainly possible given the closeness to the ancient springs.

Iron Age and Later PrehistoryA conical shaped hill rising to a height of 330 metres above sea level. Close to the base of the hill is a rampart up to 5 metres high (outside measurement) that goes part of the way around the hill (North and NE sides), it has been suggested that the rampart was never completed but does represent a rampart belonging to an Iron Age Fort or enclosure.

Pre-ColumbianRoughly 80 feet (24m) wide and 20 feet (6m) tall, the Spruce Bluff Mound is a remnant of the Pre-Columbian Ais Culture, who lived along the Indian River Lagoon between Cape Canaveral and the St. Lucie Inlet. The mound has been to dated to around 300–100 BC and is perhaps the largest surviving example of an Ais mound left standing today.

ReviewsThis book was Terence's Oxford MSc thesis in 2009 and has now in 2026 been published Open Access by the University of Buckingham Press. The sixteen years between those dates matter: they're the period in which Meaden developed the stone circle work that followed, applying the same methodology to Cork and Kerry, to northeast Scotland, and to Stonehenge. All this comparative evidence makes this Wessex study more interesting in retrospect than it could have seemed in isolation.
