It looks at the origins of the county and the early evolution of its landscape and, in examining the subtle and complex relationship between early territorial organisation and natural topography, emphasises the surprising degree of territorial and administrative continuity from the Roman period through to the time of the Norman Conquest. Hertfordshire is often described as an 'unremarkable' county, lacking a clearly defined identity and, lying close to London, extensively suburbanised. In fact it has a long and complex history and a rich archaeological heritage; developments in the remote past continue to shape its character and appearance to the present day. This is a greatly expanded and extensively revised version of the first edition (published in 2000), which takes full account both of the mass of new archaeological and historical evidence that has emerged over the last decade, and of the latest theoretical approaches in landscape history. 606 $aLand settlement$zEngland$zHertfordshire$xHistory 607 $aHertfordshire (England)$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLand settlement$xHistory. 676 $a942.5/8 700 $aWilliamson$b Tom$0622953 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453637103321 996 $aThe origins of Hertfordshire$92462728 997 $aUNINA
