Summary
'Lives in Land' brings together all the evidence from Mucking, the largest area excavation ever undertaken in the British Isles, presenting both the details of many important structures and assemblages, and a comprehensive synthesis of landscape development through the ages. The long time-gap since completion of the excavations has allowed the authors to stand back from the destiny of the site data and place the vast sum of Mucking evidence in the wider context of the archaeology of southern England throughout the major periods of occupation and activity.
