Abstract
An 8000--year record of sea-level change from grain-size parameters: data from beach ridges in Denmark
William F Tanner
220 - 231
A study of a low-energy beach ridge system near the town of Jerup suggests that glacio-isostatic rebound has averaged 2 to 2,1 mm yr-1 for the system. When plotted on a semi-log diagram, it was shown to have decreased from 4 mm yr-1 (at 6,000 BP) to about 1.3 mm yr-1 (at c 1,000 BP). The Jerup curve matches one from the Gulf of Mexico.
The environmental impact of prehistoric mining at Copa Hill, Cwmystwyth, Wales
Timothy M Mighall
Frank M Chambers
260 - 264
To complement experimental quantification of the fuel wood demands of early metalworking, pollen analysis was applied in a pilot study of blanket peat deposits adjacent to the copper mine. Results provided circumstantial evidence linking prehistoric human activity at the mine in the Early Bronze Age both to selective woodland removal and upland peat initiation close to the site. Woodland clearances seem to have been relatively small-scale during the inferred period of mining, with limited overall impact, implying either protracted small-scale mining operations, or active management of woodland resources. Future directions for study of the impact of early mining on woodland are suggested.
