ABSTRACT The development of agriculture played an important role in the development of society during the early medieval period. This paper presents an insight into the changes in crop and animal husbandry for early medieval Yorkshire (fourth – late thirteenth century). A synthesis of archaeobotanical and zooarchaeological evidence from 163 sites revealed multiple changes in the presence of different cereal types and main domesticates. While a high presence of wheat and barley was observed across the period, an increased use of both oats and rye has been highlighted. Faunal evidence has emphasised the different sub-regional developments of cattle and sheep/goats within Yorkshire. These trends suggest that agricultural development went initially through a phase of abatement marked by the apparent taking up of subsistence-oriented crop and unspecialised animal husbandry practices. A phase of agricultural intensification was observed during the Anglo-Scandinavian and later phases as the arable was enlarged through the use of more specific cereals (like oats and rye). It is suggested that this was accompanied by an increasingly specialised animal economy focusing on their secondary products. Additionally, Anglian estate organisation might have been an important contributor towards the development of agricultural methods in areas like the Yorkshire Wolds.

The project was envisioned by the former Hadrian’s Wall Trust and funded by Cristian Levett, and provides a very useful complement to the recent work of the Roman Temples Project led by Prof. Ian Haynes and Tony Wilmott for the Senhouse Museum Trust.

Objective: Amyloid-β positron emission tomography (Aβ-PET) scan has been proposed to detect amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition in the brain. However, this approach is costly and not ideal for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. Blood-based Aβ measurement offers a scalable alternative to the costly or invasive biomarkers. The aim of this study was to statistically validate whether plasma Aβ could predict Aβ-PET status via meta-analysis.
Methods: We systematically searched for eligible studies from PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library, which reported plasma Aβ levels of amyloid-β positron emission tomography-positive (PET (+)) and amyloid-β positron emission tomography-negative (PET (-)) subjects. We generated pooled estimates using random effects meta-analyses. For any study that has significant heterogeneity, metaregression and subgroup analysis were further conducted. Publication bias was appraised by funnel plots and Egger's test.
Results: 16 studies with 3047 participants were included in the meta-analysis. Among all the enrolled studies, 10 studies reported plasma Aβ40 values, while 9 studies reported plasma Aβ42 values and 13 studies reported Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio. The pooled standardised mean difference (SMD) was 0.76 (95% CI -0.61 to 2.14, p=0.28) in the plasma Aβ40 values group. Plasma Aβ42 values group has a pooled SMD of -0.60 (95% CI -0.80 to -0.41, p<0.0001). In the plasma Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio group, the pooled SMD was -1.44 (95% CI -2.17 to -0.72, p<0.0001).
Conclusion: Plasma Aβ40 values might not distinguish between PET (+) and PET (-) people. However, plasma Aβ42 values and plasma Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio could be served as independent biomarkers for predicting Aβ-PET status.

drinking customs. Based on its local context the authors propose that the hoard was deposited between c.AD 45–60/61, perhaps by a member of the local native elite. Various theories for its deposition have been proposed previously, some more plausible than others, with the authors leaning towards a votive explanation, which does seem likely given the proximity of the temple. Here they suggest that this act may have been conceived as a deliberate repudiation of the newly emerged cultural practices of the immediate postConquest period in the aftermath of the Boudiccan rebellion, a convincing theory given the deliberately fragmented condition in which it was deposited. It is a credit to the original finder of the hoard that we know so much about its discovery and it is good to finally see this publication as there has been little easily accessible information available previously. Although slim in size and limited in its scope the study nonetheless makes a worthwhile contribution to the study of the fascinatingly complex cultural transitions of the mid-first century AD in south-east Britain and the developing material culture of this period.

historical models and particular exemplars, Silvester instead situates analysis in the datacentric results of a study in 2015 by the Gwynedd Archaeological Trust. The result is an important and potentially seminal analysis that highlights differences and divergences at a local and regional level. This theme of locality is further adopted in David Austin’s contribution analysing in detail the development of an estate and landscape surrounding the Abbey of Strata Florida in Ceredigion. Subsequently, Rhiannon Comeau demonstrates the origin of the thirteenth-century term In rodwallis in the inter-related practices and seasonal practices of land-use in pre-Conquest Wales through a detailed study of the lordship of Cemais. Continuing this theme of demonstrating the enduring value of focused analyses of specific localities, Andy Seaman emphasizes the value of the Llandaff charters for understanding landscape, exploitation and political dynamics in the case of the estate surrounding Llangorse. Demonstrating how different a picture they present to eighteenthand nineteenth-century accounts of agricultural norms, Seaman also expertly elucidates the operation of a major royal and ecclesiastical landscape. Tudor Davis thereafter marries concerns for the locality, with a regional and national focus, demonstrating temporal and spatial variation across Wales from a palaeoecological standpoint. This exceptional work of synthesis is perhaps the most significant, original and comprehensive piece of research within this excellent volume, challenging many of the dominant narratives surrounding agricultural expansion, decline and contraction. Wrapping up the volume, Andrew Fleming presents a thought-provoking and powerful discussion of the need to consider both continuity and change against a range of scales, emphasizing how powerful a lens this is for the analysis of the nexus of agriculture and landscape in Wales. As a whole, this volume is an exceptionally important statement of the potential of focused local and regional scale analysis to transform understandings of the nature of agricultural practice, and its significance in wider social, political and cultural developments. The contributions complement each other excellently, and together describe a cohesive overview of interest to those studying Wales, but also more broadly to students of landscape, agriculture and medieval society elsewhere.

The result is an important and potentially seminal analysis that highlights differences and divergences at a local and regional level. This theme of locality is further adopted in David Austin’s contribution analysing in detail the development of an estate and landscape surrounding the Abbey of Strata Florida in Ceredigion. Subsequently, Rhiannon Comeau demonstrates the origin of the thirteenth-century term In rodwallis in the inter-related practices and seasonal practices of land-use in pre-Conquest Wales through a detailed study of the lordship of Cemais. Continuing this theme of demonstrating the enduring value of focused analyses of specific localities, Andy Seaman emphasizes the value of the Llandaff charters for understanding landscape, exploitation and political dynamics in the case of the estate surrounding Llangorse. Demonstrating how different a picture they present to eighteenthand nineteenth-century accounts of agricultural norms, Seaman also expertly elucidates the operation of a major royal and ecclesiastical landscape.
