Abstract:
Recent studies of river valleys and chalk/and dry valleys have shown evidence for extensive anthropogenic soil erosion in prehistoric Sussex starting during the Mesolithic but increasing rapidly with the arrival of the earliest farming communities shortly before 4,000 B.C. This article adds to that data by examining evidence from the Greensand (West Heath) and the Coastal Plain (Ferring). At both sites evidence for soil erosion is centred on the 2nd-1st millenia B.C.
