The purpose of this document is to stimulate debate and reflection over the achievements and discoveries of the past 14 years. Research that has been carried out over this period has addressed many of the areas of priority identified in the 1999 Framework, some of which are still valid. Most notably, though, impact and engagement have come to the fore as a substantial element of archaeological work. It remains important, however, to identify the successes and weaknesses of understanding derived from all sectors of the profession.

Potential exists in the under-studied grey literature though the scale of the data and its understanding remains daunting. Similar potential exists in museum and private collections where a research question directs their consultation. Nevertheless, a most striking facet in the compilation of this document is the relative lack of academics undertaking fieldwork on major Mesolithic sites and landscapes. Furthermore, the integration of palaeoenvironmental and archaeological evidence is frustratingly lacking, perhaps due to difficulties in justifying palaeoenvironmental work under previous planning policy or simply lack of opportunities. New scientific techniques and field methodologies have been developed in the past 14 years, though the extent of the application of these on Mesolithic sites and collections remains unclear.
