Current Research
My main research interest is the development of the societies, settlements and landscapes of early medieval Britain and northwest Europe. I am particularly interested in how the application of archaeological methods and stratigraphic analyses can throw new light onto old debates.
Past Research
路 My PhD research looked at better ways of understanding early medieval settlements (450-1086 AD) known previously only from metal-detector finds. To achieve this, I applied integrated survey techniques, consisting of fieldwalking, metal-detecting,geophysical survey (magnetometer) and trial trenching to a series of case-study sites identified by amateur fieldworkers and the Portable Antiquities Scheme.
路 I have published work in a A- and B- rated international peer reviewed journals (see Bibliography here https://nottingham.academia.edu/GarethDavies)
Future Research
