This is a detailed study and typology of chevron ornamentation, the zig-zag motifs which are omnipresent in Norman architecture of the twelfth century, first appearing around 1090 and pretty much disappearing by 1200. In creating such a typology Rachel Moss addresses questions of the regional development and evolution of the form and finds that a simple model of linear development cannot entirely be substained.
