Abstract:
Despite the clear value of wetland sites it is argued that their promise has never been fully realised due to a combination of factors, among them the working out of peatbogs, the gradual decline of hand-cutting of peat, the erosive character of water in some Alpine lakes, the silting of other bodies of water, the construction of massive docks, railways and roadways along lake shores and in river valleys, the use of some wetlands for dumping, the denomination of others as wildlife reserves, and the development of other areas of archaeological research. It is acknowledged that extraction of the wealth of evidence is time-consuming and costly. The chapter concludes with a strategy for Scottish wetlands which have yet to be fully explored.
