Abstract

"A Biography of Power: Research and Excavations at the Iron Age Oppidum of Bagendon, Gloucestershire (1979–2017)" by T. Moore is a comprehensive study that aims to shed light on the lesser-known Iron Age site of Bagendon in Gloucestershire. The book combines the results of new excavations, geophysical surveys, and previously unpublished work to provide a detailed understanding of the site's chronology, phasing, and significance. The research reveals a complex settlement system and trade network in southern Britain during the Iron Age, highlighting the evolving nature of cultural identity and elite power. The book is a valuable resource for researchers interested in this critical period of history. [Extracted from the article]
