Chapter 5. Hurstbourne Priors and Buriton : two Middle Bronze Age hoards from Hampshire recorded by David Wynn Williams

Résumé

This volume brings together papers in memory of David Wynn Williams. David was an active member of the Surrey Archaeological Society from a young age and made a substantial contribution to the archaeology of Surrey over many years. With a background in graphic design he was a talented artist and an accomplished draughtsman. In 1997 he published Late Saxon Stirrup-Strap Mounts: A Classification and Catalogue (1997), a pioneering corpus as it also included metal-detected finds. In 2003 David became the Portable Antiquities Scheme’s Finds Liaison Officer for Surrey, and then also for East Berkshire, during which time he recorded thousands of objects found by members of the public. David died very unexpectedly in December 2017 aged 68. In February 2019 a conference was held at the Surrey History Centre in Woking, where colleagues and friends presented a series of papers relating to their experiences of working with and alongside David, both in Surrey and within the wider world of small finds research. It was felt that a fitting tribute to David would be to publish these papers in a volume which also includes an introduction to his substantial art portfolio as well as some very personal tributes from finders.
