Books by Gary Lock

The hillforts of five countries thoroughly mapped, described and explained This book provides the first comprehensive series of maps of the hillforts of Britain and Ireland, with accompanying commentaries and broader overviews which interpret the survival and detection of this evidence in its later prehistoric and early historic contexts. The authors expertly assess and analyse the available evidence for over 4,000 hillforts from Shetland to Cornwall to County Clare to a single standard and present their findings in both map and descriptive form. Linking to the online appendix where a wealth of detailed information is available to search, the book is an indispensable resource. Gary Lock is Emeritus Professor of Archaeology at the University of Oxford. Ian Ralston is Abercromby Emeritus Professor of Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh and President of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland.

These nine papers, based on the 4th World Archaeological Congress held in South Africa in 1999, take a critical view of computer usage in archaeology and study its impact on the discipline and especially in terms of archaeological method and theory.

This volume describes the two seasons of excavation at Segsbury Camp which form a part of Oxford University's Hillforts of the Ridgeway Project . It contains background material and a series of interpretations of the site at different scales finishing with a discussion of the Lambourn Downs landscape in later prehistoric and Romano-British times.

This is the first comprehensive review of computer applications in archaeology from the archaeologist's perspective. The book deals with all aspects of the discipline, from survey and excavation to museums and education.
