A Medieval Punishment Cemetery at Weyhill Road, Andover, Hampshire

A Medieval Punishment Cemetery at Weyhill Road, Andover, Hampshire

In 2016, a watching brief in advance of construction at a site between Andover and Weyhill, Hampshire, revealed disturbed human remains. This formerly isolated roadside location, which had been partly developed in the later 20th century, lies close to the historical boundary between Andover and Abbotts Ann Hundred. The discovery led to the excavation of a densely crowded group of partly disturbed and heavily intercut graves, and it soon became clear that this was not a normal community cemetery. The remains of some 124 individuals, mostly male and adult, were revealed, with much additional disarticulated bone. Many had clearly been buried with their hands tied behind their backs or had been interred face-down, and some had been decapitated.As might be expected with a rural ‘execution’ (or punishment) cemetery of this type, very few artefacts were recovered. In this case only one find, a silver penny dateable to AD 979-985, allowed close dating, which suggested that the site was a distinctive type of Saxon cemetery known elsewhere in Hampshire. However, radiocarbon dates from articulated burials, selected for their spatial and stratigraphic positions, demonstrate that the cemetery was in use from at least the 10th century (and possibly as early as the 8th century), and continued in use beyond the Norman Conquest to at least the 13th and possibly the 14th century. Stable isotope analysis shows that the people buried here were mostly of local origin.The significance of the site lies in this evidence for continuity, at a local level, of the organisation of judicial power from Saxon times well into the Middle Ages. It is the first site to provide clear evidence for such duration of a ‘punishment’ cemetery.

Palestine is proud of you' - Suad Amiry________________The Palestine Festival of Literature was established in 2008. Bringing together writers from all corners of the globe, it aims to help Palestinians break the cultural siege imposed by the Israeli military occupation, to strengthen their artistic links with the rest of the world, and to reaffirm, in the words of Edward Said, ‘the power of culture over the culture of power’.Celebrating the tenth anniversary of PalFest, This Is Not a Border is a collection of essays, poems and stories from some of the world’s most distinguished artists, responding to their experiences at this unique festival. Both heartbreaking and hopeful, their gathered work is a testament to the power of literature to promote solidarity and courage in the most desperate of situations.Contributors: Susan Abulhawa, Suad Amiry, Victoria Brittain, Jehan Bseiso, Teju Cole, Molly Crabapple, Selma Dabbagh, Mahmoud Darwish, Najwan Darwish, Geoff Dyer, Yasmin El-Rifae, Adam Foulds, Ru Freeman, Omar Robert Hamilton, Suheir Hammad, Nathalie Handal, Mohammed Hanif, Jeremy Harding, Rachel Holmes, John Horner, Remi Kanazi, Brigid Keenan, Mercedes Kemp, Omar El-Khairy, Nancy Kricorian, Sabrina Mahfouz, Jamal Mahjoub, Henning Mankell, Claire Messud, China Miéville, Pankaj Mishra, Deborah Moggach, Muiz, Maath Musleh, Michael Palin, Ed Pavlic, Atef Abu Saif, Kamila Shamsie, Raja Shehadeh, Gillian Slovo, Ahdaf Soueif, Linda Spalding, Will Sutcliffe, Alice WalkerWith messages from China Achebe, Michael Ondaatje and J.

After a first success in France and thousands of readers already won over, this short story, a French MxM urban fantasy of 2023, is now available in English. Heartbroken after a break-up, Jeremy, a young employee at the Mus e du Louvre, needs to move on. He has to finish organizing the launch party for the new exhibition event, "Halloween - Myths and Oriental Masterpieces", whose centerpiece is the Varakk djinn vase, in front of which each guest from the Tout-Paris will be asked to make wishes "for the game."But be careful what you wish for. Jeremy is far from imagining the incredible night he's about to experience, filled with evil spells, witchcraft and... romance, especially with Zacharie, a young antique dealer as mysterious as he is appealing. A night of fantasy, surprises... and passion, sure to please lovers of fantasy and MxM stories. The perfect Halloween read This queer book contains explicit content that may offend an uninformed public. - Madelline R. Kennedy, a 33-year-old American with a passion for MxM stories, has teamed up with French author J r me Patalano to add epic appeal to this story (originally a short novella), which could well be... the first of a new MxM urban fantasy saga. The French also know how to tell a good MxM story - J r me Patalano. - Readers' comments: - "This story has it all: emotion, a spicy scene, legends and fantasy " - Severine- "You'll never see the Louvre in the same way again, trust me..." - Nano No l- "It reminded me of my childhood, especially the Ghostbusters movies Loved it." - Clemence

From May to September 1940, a period that saw some of the most dramatic events in British history - including the evacuation of Dunkirk, the Battle of Britain and the opening stages of the Blitz - the Ministry of Information eavesdropped on the conversations of ordinary people in all parts of the United Kingdom and compiled secret daily reports on the state of popular morale.
