Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Archaeological sites preserved deep within the alluvium are commonly difficult to locate due to the thick nature of the stratigraphical record of such regions. Conventional methods of archaeological evaluation are inappropriate for such areas and novel methodologies, such as the use of boreholes to model sub-surface stratigraphical architecture, are required to aid evaluation. In order to determine the archaeological significance of the stratigraphical record preserved in such areas the nature of the archaeological signal needs to be determined in addition to attaining an understanding of the sedimentological history of the area. In this paper a model for sequence generation within a large, lowland river system in southern England is proposed and tested against sub-surface data from the north bank of the river Thames. This approach allows zones of archaeological potential to be determined and calibrated by reference to extant age estimates. | ||
