Abstract: |
An assessment is made here to determine the potential of the hand-collected and sieved/floated microvertebrate assemblages from the early Neolithic and Bronze Age deposits at Longstone Edge. Some levels have great abundance of microvertebrates, and if their mode of accumulation can be identified they could provide information as to the nature of the deposits and the environment existing during the Neolithic. The microfauna may further provide important clues about the taphonomic history of the barrows, including access to and exposure of the structures in different periods. |
