Abstract
Valuing different road options for Stonehenge
David Maddison
Susana Mourato
203 - 212
Article on the contingent valuation survey undertaken in the late 1990s on road options for the A303 and A344 in the area of Stonehenge, the survey's design and presentation, the attitudes revealed by the responses given, and an econometric analysis of the results.
Dimensional variations of Roman masonry subjected to wetting--drying cycles
Carlo Giavarini
Maria Laura Santarelli
213 - 218
Paper on an evaluation of the effect of wetting and drying phenomena caused by water and/or humidity from the ground on Roman monuments made of opus caementicium. A number of cores of concrete made of a pozzolanic mortar with large pieces of tuff, marble and bricks were taken from an ancient monument, the Domus Tiberiana, in the Palatine, Rome. In spite of some differences in their composition the behaviour of the cores was similar, and generally constant during the experimental cycles. On average, the length variation was about 3--4o/oo or 3--4 mm for each metre and, when related to high structural walls and monuments, the possible dimensional changes were impressive.
Quantifying the effects of erosion on the archaeology of intertidal environments; a new approach and its implications for their mana...
Henry H P Chapman

Gavin Thomas
233 - 240
Paper presenting an approach to the management of intertidal deposits aimed at monitoring erosion within the Humber estuary, where previous archaeological finds include Bronze Age boat remains and trackways. Two sites were investigated, and the results from these demonstrate both the high rate of sediment removal and the highly variable nature of intertidal erosion. It is argued that global figures relating to rates of erosion are wholly inappropriate when attempting to manage archaeological deposits that have survived in intertidal environments, and that management of such archaeologically rich but threatened landscapes is only possible through regular quantitative monitoring. Such an approach offers coastal protection authorities an opportunity to assess the long-term progress of erosion and coastal change. It is suggested that this methodology could be employed alongside management agreements within those particular coastal cells or process units that have been identified in a Shoreline Management Plan.
