Abstract
Geochemical provenancing of igneous glacial erratics from Southern Britain, and implications for prehistoric stone implement distributions

209 - 246
Sixteen basic and intermediate composition igneous glacial erratics from Anglian (pre-423,000 years) deposits in Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire were selected for chemical and petrographic analysis in order to determine their original source outcrops. There is a marked geographical correlation between the distribution of prehistoric stone implements of quartz dolerite in the United Kingdom, and directions of ice movements from quartz dolerite outcrops within Britain. This correlation lends support to the hypothesis that prehistoric people made extensive use of glacial erratics for implement manufacture, as an alternative to quarrying at outcrops and subsequent long-distance trade. Includes:

Considers the human impacts on pedogenic rock and mineral weathering. Uses a case study based in central Arizona to test the theoretical framework for human-impacted weathering.
Vacuum chambers for use in resin impregnation of core samples
Matthew D Gage
307 - 311
Reports the development of a low budget vacuum chamber designed to expedite the impregnation process of core samples needed for micromorphological analysis. Documents the process of vacuum chamber construction. The chambers were built and used as part of a research project near Moundville, Alabama.
