Abstract
Shute Shelve Cavern: exploration, history and geomorphology
A R Farrant
Alan Gray
283 - 290
Reports the discovery of a cavern occupied by ochre miners earlier this century and which may also be the `Lost Cave of Axbridge'.
An interim report on the survey and excavations in the Wye Valley, 1993
R N E Barton
337 - 346
In 1993 the Wye Valley Caves Project undertook an exploratory season of survey and trial excavations in a series of caves and rockshelters in the Wye Valley Gorge, near Monmouth. Initial finds have included material of Upper Palaeolithic, Mesolithic, BA and RB dates. Future work is intended to include the development of new methods of small scale survey, and to focus on the relationship between the functional use of caves and their location in the landscape.
Archaeological notes: work at the Hyaena Den, Wookey Hole
Roger M Jacobi
C J Hawkes
369 - 371
Extensive previous work at the site prompted modest expectations of the 1991-92 foray. However, as well as the predicted finds from disturbed contexts, layers of undisturbed sediment containing flint/chert micro-debris and charred bone, hyaena coprolite, bone and teeth -- including a red deer incisor ideal for accelerator radiocarbon dating -- were found along the north front of the cave. The south produced a stream deposit rich in faunal remains and yielding the largest group of Pleistocene fish remains yet discovered in a British cave site.
