No grave goods were present within the grave. Cist burials of this type are rare in Britain as a whole, a late third century example from Trentholme Drive in York being the closest comparable example.","PeriodicalId":40237,"journal":{"name":"Yorkshire Archaeological Journal","volume":"95 1","pages":"54 - 71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47981867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His family background was more aspirational than is often thought and Whitby was an extraordinarily prosperous and enterprising place to train for a life at sea. Particularly important was the fact that education was professional and emphasized mathematics. When Cook left Whitby for the Royal Navy he had developed a deep respect for technical skills, together with a dogged perseverance. His background growing up on a farm was revealed through his concern for the spread of ‘useful crops’ and an increase in animal husbandry in the lands visited. Finally, his general lack of pretension and open-mindedness about the societies he encountered was influenced by the nine crucial years he spent in an outward-looking and openminded environment in Whitby.","PeriodicalId":40237,"journal":{"name":"Yorkshire Archaeological Journal","volume":"95 1","pages":"142 - 161"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42210276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
