    Brief

    This project requires comprehensive analysis of prehistoric pottery excavated from two Bronze Age/Iron Age henges in Wiltshire: Marden henge (excavated 2010, 2015, 2016) and Wilsford henge (excavated 2015-2016). The work involves detailed examination of ceramic sherds including refitting analysis, vessel form documentation, establishment of a Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age ceramic type series, material selection for illustration and reconstruction, and thin-section analysis. The successful provider will prepare a publication-ready report that contextualizes findings through comparative analysis with regional assemblages. This is a specialized archaeological conservation and analysis role requiring expertise in prehistoric ceramics, stratigraphic recording, and academic report preparation for heritage organizations.
