Adaptation to a changing environment: the response of marshland communities to the late ...

Evidence from marine crannogs of later prehistoric use of the Firth of Clyde
Rob Sands
Alex Hale
41 - 54
Describes the Dumbuck crannog on the intertidal foreshore of the Firth of Clyde where structural timbers have been dated to the end of the first millennium BC and the early first millennium AD. At least thirty log boats have been found close to the shores of the inner firth, one in association with the Dumbuck crannog. The site's origins are investigated and its relationship to four other crannogs situated within a ten kilometre stretch of the firth are explored. Discusses reasons why this area of the Clyde was exploited during the latter part of prehistory.
The impact of Western European beaver on stream channels: some implications for past stream conditions and h...
Bryony J Coles (neé Orme)
55 - 82
Considers the impact of beaver dams on river channels in past European landscapes, with regard to channel dimensions, development of multiple channels, water flow, water volume, sedimentation and organic input. The relevance of beaver-induced changes to palaeoenvironmental and archaeological studies is considered. Uses evidence from beaver dams in France and North America.
The Mesolithic and Neolithic landscapes of Barfield Tarn and Eskmeals in the English Lake District: some new evidence from two different wetland conte...

E Y Haworth
83 - 105
Provides new evidence for the environment of the coastal plain of south west Cumbria during the Mesolithic--Neolithic transition. Identifies submerged forests and valley sediments. A case is made for re-interpretation of aspects of the Late Mesolithic site at Eskmeals whilst Late Neolithic cultivation in the vicinity of Barnfield Tarn is confirmed. The extent of the environmental change associated with Neolithic activity is considered to be widespread, including the introduction of two crops, emmer and flax, which have been identified in the area for the first time.
