Abstract
The submerged prehistoric landscapes of the southern North Sea: work in progress
Peter L Murphy

The article outlines the latest developments in technology, methodology and international collaboration that will lead to systematic study of the submerged prehistoric landscapes of the North Sea and their inhabitants, and presents a summary of the latest results.
Focus or frontier?; The significance of estuaries in the landscape of ...
Stephen J Rippon
23 - 38
The article examines case studies of the social and economic significance of estuaries in the east and west of Britain. The author suggests that they were only important in certain socio-economic and political spheres, and that, particularly for the lower levels of society, they often represented a barrier to contact. It is also argued that the significance of estuaries changed over time as the nature of economic interaction and political structures evolved.

Harold Fox

A Great North Route in Neolithic and Bronze Age Yorkshire: the evidence of landscape and monuments
Blaise E Vyner
69 - 84
Although the Jurassic Way has long been dismissed as a prehistoric route, the article suggests that there is evidence in the Vale of York monuments for a long-distance route southwards and northwards through the vale which brought the Neolithic people of eastern Yorkshire, and perhaps beyond, to ritual complexes along the River Ure, where communities gathered for rituals which included the exchange of axes and ideas.
Don't bin your boots!
Andrew Fleming
85 - 99
The article presents a review of Matthew Johnson's critique of conventional disciplinary approaches to the history and archaeology of landscape (in Ideas of landscape, Oxford 2006). The author agrees on the need for fresh thinking but argues that empiricism is a function of scientific curiosity and procedure, rather than Romanticism or ineffability, and that it is unneccessary and unjustifiable to denigrate conventional landscape archaeology and history studies in order to advocate new ideas.
