For those who missed our seminar with Dr Andy Seaman about 'A Hippo in the March' last week, you can watch the session on our YouTube channel here: #medieval #mapping #archaeology #mappingthemarch youtu.be/31MSm7H7P6Q
Great to hear Andy Seaman's paper on Breiddin Hill at the 'Mapping the March' seminar on Monday. Andy revealed a fascinating find from the site - an early medieval ornament made of copper alloy, in the shape of a small hippo. Evidence of an early interest in African culture?
This week Rachael (@latemedievalist) has been examining accounts from Bromfield and Yale, plotting the locations within the lordship that men and women were active in. Our database is growing quickly…plus it is satisfying to unroll these accounts! #medievalmapping
The 2024/2025 Mapping the March seminar series is due to commence this month! Please find details below about our November seminar presented by Dr Andy Seaman entitled ‘A Hippo in the March: An Early Medieval Centre on the Breiddin Hill and its Context in a Frontier Landscape’

Valle Crucis Abbey (Abaty Glyn y Groes) was one of the foremost Cistercian abbeys in the March of Wales. It was an important centre for producing vernacular manuscripts, including the Black Book of Basingwerk (NLW 7006D) one of the manuscripts in our Mapping the March database.
We've been busy mapping the historic parish boundaries of Gloucestershire. The Severn is our unofficial boundary marker for now and so we will head north from here into Herefordshire! #mapmonday
