Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
the paper discusses the problems of interpreting two-dimensional survey data, such as site distribution maps, in dynamic sedimentary environments, the Somerset Levels being used as a case study. Archaeological investigations have demonstrated the importance of this area to Neolithic and Bronze Age populations, but there is only limited evidence of Mesolithic exploitation. Recent work suggests that this under-representation could be a product of burial by sediment forming as a result of mid-Holocene sea level rise. It is suggested that bore hole study, augmented by stratigraphic geophysical survey and deposit modelling, is an essential part of any investigation of dynamic sedimentary environment where the aim is to locate `surfaces' that have been utilised by past populations | ||||||
