Landscape contexts of Bronze Age hoards

Suggested period: BRONZE AGE

Mapping the findspots of Bronze Age hoards using GIS to compare them with landscape features, e.g. slope, elevation, soil type, watercourse proximity, previous landscape actively etc would help to shed light on hoarding behaviour. This has been done for north-east England (Poyer 2015, PhD from University of Sheffield) but could profitably be tested in other areas or nationally.
