Abstract: |
Detailed survey of place-names, ancient causeways, submerged dwellings and walls, etc, suggests that present shorelines date only to 11th-15th century, the drowning not evident before the end of RB. Prehistoric colonization c 2000 BC from Lands End; segmentary society not building major public works; population growth leading to stress; by EIA/RB, mature mixed farming landscape. Includes discussion of Tennyson, Arthur and Lyonesse. |
