Carbon Date. 3000BC. Late Neolithic Carbon Dates

Report: Bone, id as partial human frontal, from square D3, layer OB, of excavation in front of the western entrance to Robin Hood Cave, Creswell Crags, Derbyshire, England. Subm R M Jacobi. Comment (subm): frontal bone is clearly Early Neolithic and confirms presence of post-Pleistocene material in these external screes. Mello had previously recorded human bones from outside this entrance, and from that spoil Campbell recovered material representing at least two individuals. A lumbar vertebra from same source has date of 4870 120 (OxA-1807). Original depositional context of all these human bones is unknown.

Report: charcoal; the sample was taken from a section face of the segment cut through the avenue ditch. This avenue consisted of two parallel lines of segmented ditch lengths plus various sized treeholes. The avenue leads up to and is cut by a circular pit-ring. No finds were recovered from the ditch lengths or treeholes, but fills of the ditch were full of burnt material, some of which may well have been burnt in situ. Many rootlets were evident within the charcoal. Some attempt has been made to remove these.

Carbon Date. 2980BC. Late Neolithic Carbon Dates

Report: Hazleton North- Carbonised residue; adhering to internal surface of potsherd; the sherds were found in the pre-cairn buried soil (211), beneath cell W of the cairn structure. There is some possibility that these sherds are residual or intrusive, but they should not derive from the Mesolithic use of the site. Nor is it likely that the sherds could have penetrated the buried soil after the cairn was built over it. The sherds should therefore date to the pre-cairn Neolithic 'domestic' activity at Hazleton, or possibly to the post-midden, pre-cairn interval in which the site was cultivated.

Carbon Date. 2965BC. Late Neolithic Carbon Dates

Report: Ribble Valley - waterlogged plant macrofossil; alder catkins/seeds; the materials are organic detritus from an organic-rich silty clay palaeosoil towards the top of a sequence of laminated coarse to medium sand flood deposits. The sequence was sampled from a core (CAL/C6) located in the centre of a palaeochannel with surface expression on Calder Terrace 2. The surface geomorphology reveals the setting is a palaeochannel. The sample is taken from towards the top of the palaeochannel fill, targeting a flood layer at 1.03-1.09m. The materials are detrital rather than in situ, but they comprise soft plant matter, probably locally derived, and are likely to be similar in age to the flood deposit. The dateable material comes from a sandy flood layer buried by further finer-grained flood laminations. Downwards root penetration is unlikely given the deposits are sealed beneath intact flood laminations. At the time of sampling the water table was at 0.25m beneath the surface, and based on iron and manganese discolouration probably oscillates around 0.5-0.75m below the surface.

The fill comprised a mid-brown to grey sandy loam. Thirty-six sherds of pottery were found in the fill together with forty pieces of struck flint of an early Neolithic character. The feature was cut by posthole L522. There was no intrusion or residuality. The local geology is valley gravels overlain by sandy acidic subsoils and topsoils. The feature was cut into sandy gravel and was approximately 0.40m from the ground surface. There was no disturbance.

Report: Hazleton North- Human bone; adult female, left femur; this bone is one of a pair of femora (<11035> and <9554>) found in context (412) of the south chamber, attributed to an adult female and evidently not belonging to another identified or dated individual. Context (412) was sealed between a paved floor, context (452) (or (453), the pre-cairn surface, where paving was absent), and (352), a horizontal layer of limestone slabs. This appears to have been the collapsed roof of the chamber. The two femora were evidently deposited while the chamber was still open.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Plant macrofossil; the sample came from a small pit 1432, 0.86m long, 0.43m wide, and 0.36m deep, containing three deposits (1435, 1434, and 1433). The pit was located within the interior of the causewayed enclosure. The samples have been extracted from the primary fill 1433 - a greyish brown sand silt with infrequent lumps and flecks of Charcoal, which is slumped against the sides of the feature. The pit contains more than 0.6kg of worked flint and over 2.2kg of Mildenhall ware. Most of these finds come from the primary deposit. The pit touches no other features, but has been truncated by 0.3m by modern ploughing. The pit was cut into the glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel, and was sealed by 0.3m of modern ploughsoil. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable before excavation began.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the sample came from a small pit 103, 0.75m wide and 0.42m deep, containing a single deposit, 102. The pit was located close to a segment of one of the causewayed enclosure ditches in the north-east corner of the site. The sample was fill 102, a black sand silt, which contained a small amount of Mildenhall ware (0.4kg), a very large cache (6.8kg) of cores, chippings, and unfinished flint tools (like nearby pit 98), and infrequent lumps and flecks of Charcoal. The west side of the pit was cut by an Iron Age ditch 111, with a single fill 110. The pit was cut into the glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel, and was sealed by 0.3m of modern ploughsoil. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable before excavation began.

Report: Ribble Valley - waterlogged plant macrofossil; alder catkins; the materials are organic detritus from the base of a sequence of coarse sand flood deposits. The sequence was sampled from a core (CAL/C6) located in the centre of a palaeochannel with surface expression on Calder Terrace 2. The surface geomorphology reveals the setting is a palaeochannel. The sample is taken from the base of the palaeochannel fill, targeting the basal sand flood layer at 3.12-3.17m. The materials are detrital rather than in situ, but they comprise soft plant matter, probably locally derived, and are likely to be similar in age to the flood deposit. The flood laminations are intact, which denotes little or no downwards penetration of organic materials. The dateable material comes from the basal flood layer which overlies (erosive contact) a thick sequence of glaciolacustrine rhythmites. At the time of sampling the water table was at 0.4m beneath the surface, and based on iron and manganese discolouration probably oscillates around 0.5-0.75m below the surface.

Report: Southworth Hall Farm- Plant macrofossil; sample from context 2159, fill of pit/posthole 2160, consisting of silty sand mottled with dark grey silt, occasionally 'peaty'. The pit was cut into context 2155, a light brown sandy layer, which may have been a buried soil or the fill of a larger archaeological feature extending beyond the excavated area. Small fragments of pottery, possibly pre-Roman, were found on the surface of this layer, and unstratified early prehistoric and early Bronze Age flints were found in the same general area. The fills of the pit may include material derived from this earlier layer.

Report: Hazleton North- Human bone; right femur; this bone is one of a cluster of disarticulated bones found in context (336) of the north chamber, attributed to a child, individual H, and evidently did not belong to another identified or dated individual (Saville 1990, fig 130). Context (336) was sealed between a paved floor, context (357/457), and (391), a horizontal layer of limestone slabs and other rubble. This appears to have been the collapsed roof of the chamber. The bones of individual H were evidently deposited while the chamber was still open.

Report: Charcoal, id by M Robinson as Betula, 3-25 yr; Pomoideae, 3-25 yr; Salix/Populus, 3-25 yr; Corylus avellana, 3-25 yr, from Trench IV in 'axe finishing site' at Harrison Stickle, Great Langdale, Cumbria, England. Sample close to that dated by BM-2625 and assoc with axe-finishing flakes in fill of natural hollow in hillside. Subm RJB 1987. Comment (subm): Great Langdale samples come from two types of axe production site; stratigraphical evidence suggests that these were broadly successive. This result agrees well with OxA-2181 (taq for Stake Beck site). With BM-2625, -2627, -2628, suggests change in production methods occurred early to mid 5th millennium BP.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the two samples came from a small pit 13817, 0.75m long, 0.66m wide, and 0.34m deep, containing two deposits (13818 and 13819), located in the space between the inside and outside circuits of the causewayed enclosure. Both samples have been extracted from the primary fill 13818 - a dark greyish brown silt sand with frequent flecks of Charcoal and small to large pieces of carbonised Wood, which contained 94g of Mildenhall ware and 192g of worked flint. No finds were found in the top deposit. The pit is in contact with no other features, and modern ploughing has truncated it by 0.3m. The pit cuts a glacio-fluvial drift deposit of brownish grey sand silt 13661. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable.

Report: Charcoal, id by M Robinson as Betula, 3-25 yr; Pomoideae, 3-25 yr; Salix/Populus, 3-25 yr; Quercus, 20-75 yr, mostly 20-35 yr, from Trench 1 in 'axe finishing site' at Harrison Stickle, Great Langdale, Cumbria, England. Sample assoc with axe-finishing flakes in fill of shallow platform on hillside. Subm RJB 1987. Comment (subm): Great Langdale samples come from two types of axe production site; stratigraphical evidence suggests that these were broadly successive. This result agrees well with OxA-2181 (taq for Stake Beck site). With BM-2626, -2627, -2628, suggests change in production methods occurred early to mid 5th millennium BP.

Report: Hazleton North- Human bone; juvenile left femur; this bone is one of several disarticulated bones found in context (412) of the south chamber, attributed to a juvenile, individual E, and evidently not from another identified or dated individual. Context (412) was sealed between a paved floor, context (452) (or (453), the pre-cairn surface, where paving was absent), and (352), a horizontal layer of limestone slabs. This appears to have been the collapsed roof of the chamber. The bones of individual E were evidently deposited while the chamber was still open.

Report: animal bone; from the second fill of the ring-ditch, found in clayey loam. Most of the first fill represented by OxA-4057 and OxA-4058 was dug out some time in the middle/late Neolithic, respecting much the same alignment as had earlier prevailed. The second fill was either a deliberate backfilling or a gradual accumulation. Both OxA-4059 and OxA-4060 come from the same context but different parts of the ring-ditch.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the two samples came from a small pit 6088, 0.76m diameter and 0.26m deep, containing one deposit 6089 - a greyish black sandy silt with occasional small flecks and lumps of Charcoal, located within the interior of the causewayed enclosure. It contains 1075g of Mildenhall ware and 241g of worked flint. A small undatable posthole 6036 cuts the west side of the pit. Modern ploughing has truncated both features by 0.3m. The pit cuts a glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable.

Report: Southworth Hall Farm- Plant macrofossil; sample from context 2027, a lower fill of pit 2028, consisting of silty mid-to-dark-grey mottled brown loamy sand with frequent flecks of charred material. This fill was cut by a later pit, 2026, whose fill, 2025, was sandier and a strong yellow-brown in colour, and contained later prehistoric pottery. The contrast between the fills of the two pits suggests that they were not mixed, and that samples from context 2027 are not intrusive. The pottery from 2025 could date from the Bronze Age to the late Iron Age. Surface finds in this area included probable early Bronze Age flint and the occasional early prehistoric flint, suggesting activity nearby in both periods.

Report: Hazleton North- Human bone; left femur; this bone is from skeleton 2, a burial in the entrance of the north chambered area. Although part of the skeleton was apparently pushed aside to make room for the burial of skeleton 1, the spine and left leg of skeleton 2 were found articulated (Saville 1990, 104; fig 119). The alignment of the spine 'clearly respected the northern edge of the collapsed orthostat 359'. Skeleton 2 is therefore known to pre-date skeleton 1, but to post date the collapse of the inner portal orthostats (358) and (359) (Saville 1990, 125). The skeleton was found within context (267), which was sealed by the collapse of the entrance-blocking orthostat (273) and then by (612), a layer of stones from the collapsed roof of the entrance passage.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the two samples came from a small pit 4060, 1.23m long, 1.14m wide, and 0.62m deep, containing five deposits (4061, 4062, 4068, 4081, and 4082). The pit was located within the interior of the causewayed enclosure. The samples have been extracted from the primary fill 4082 - a black silt sand with frequent small lumps and flecks of Charcoal. The pit contains 2249g of Mildenhall Ware and 280g of worked flint. Forty percent of the pottery comes from the primary fill. The pit clips pit 4084, which contains one deposit, but no finds or Charcoal. The pit cuts a small, shallow, undatable pit with no finds or Charcoal, 4084, and has been dug into a glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the two samples came from a small pit 5819, 1.13m diameter and 0.26m deep, containing two deposits (5820 and 5821). Both samples come from the primary fill 5821 - a dark greyish brown silt sand with frequent flecks of Charcoal, which contains 937g of Mildenhall ware and 1404g of worked flint. No finds were found in the top deposit. The feature is in contact with no other archaeological cuts or deposits, and is in a small group with two other Neolithic pits (5817 and 5758). The pit cuts a glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel and is sealed by 0.3m of modern sandy ploughsoil. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the two samples came from a small pit 13817, 0.75m long, 0.66m wide, and 0.34m deep, containing two deposits (13818 and 13819), located in the space between the inside and outside circuits of the causewayed enclosure. Both samples have been extracted from the primary fill 13818 - a dark greyish brown silt sand with frequent flecks of Charcoal and small to large pieces of carbonised Wood, which contained 94g of Mildenhall ware and 192g of worked flint. No finds were found in the top deposit. The pit is in contact with no other features, and modern ploughing has truncated it by 0.3m. The pit cuts a glacio-fluvial drift deposit of brownish grey sand silt 13661. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable.

Report: wood; from the bottom part of two pointed stakes, part of an alignment in area 2. The stakes were eroded flush with the surface of the peat, and so there is no indication of the original depth of peat or of the height of the stakes. It is clear, however, that they would have been driven into a considerably thicker layer of peat than exists today. They may have been driven in at a time when these particular peat areas were submerged or they may instead date from a period contemporary with peat formation.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Plant macrofossil; carbonised; recut (251) of north end of causewayed enclosure ditch 13930, part of middle circuit with seven deposits. Both samples come from the tertiary fill, which contains 356g of Mildenhall Ware and 2492g of flint, largely consisting of waste material-cores, chipping, and unfinished tools. Two pits (96 and 103) with exceptionally large amounts of waste flint material, suggesting a flintworking area in this part of this site, lie to the immediate north. Radiocarbon dates from both pits (series A) are in the region of c 3600 cal BC. An east-west late Iron Age linear feature 09/211 cuts the north end of the recut. The surrounding natural is a glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel. Deposit 251 is undisturbed by late Iron Age linear cut 209/211, which cuts the north end of the recut. The watertable is c 1.4m below the stripped surface.

Report: Hazleton North- Antler; this antler was found in the primary fill (context 328/214) of the south quarry, near its western edge (Saville 1990, fig 199) and shows evidence of having been used as a quarrying tool (Saville 1990, fig 201). The fill, 'derived from the weathering of the exposed limestone', apparently was deposited while quarrying was going on (Saville 1990, 23). It is therefore assumed that this antler was used in the quarrying of stone for the construction of the cairn.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the sample came from a small pit 96, 0.9m wide, and 0.32m deep, containing three deposits (97, 98, and 99). The pit was located close to a segment of one of the causewayed enclosure ditches in the north-east corner of the site. The sample was from the second fill, 98, a dark grey/black/brown silty sand which contained a very large cache (4.5kg) of cores, chippings, and unfinished flint tools (like nearby pit 103), and rare flecks of carbonised macrofossils. The pit was not stratigraphically related to any other excavated feature, but was truncated by modern ploughing. It was cut into the glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel, and was sealed by 0.3m of modern ploughsoil. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable before excavation began.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the sample came from a small pit 1114 measuring 0.87m long, 0.4m wide, and 0.6m deep, containing four deposits (1115, 1116, 1128, and 1129). The pit was located within the interior of the causewayed enclosure. The samples have been extracted from the primary fill 1129 - a greyish black sand silt with infrequent lumps and flecks of Charcoal, which occupies the lower 25%. The pit contains more than 4kg of worked flint and over 2kg of Mildenhall ware. Most of these finds come from the primary deposit. The pit touches no other features, but has been truncated by 0.3m by modern ploughing. The pit was cut into the glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel, and was sealed by 0.3m of modern ploughsoil. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable before excavation began.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Plant macrofossil; the sample came from a small pit 96, 0.9m wide, and 0.32m deep, containing three deposits (97, 98, and 99). The pit was located close to a segment of one of the causewayed enclosure ditches in the north-east corner of the site. The sample was from the second fill, 98, a dark grey/black/brown silty sand which contained a very large cache (4.5kg) of cores, chippings, and unfinished flint tools (like nearby pit 103), and rare flecks of carbonised macrofossils. The pit was not stratigraphically related to any other excavated feature, but was truncated by modern ploughing. It was cut into the glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel, and was sealed by 0.3m of modern ploughsoil. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable before excavation began.

Report: Hazleton North- Human bone; infant's left femur, unpaired; this bone is an unpaired infant femur found in context (336) of the north chamber, and evidently does not belong to another identified or dated individual. Context (336) was sealed between a paved floor, context (357/457), and (391), a horizontal layer of limestone slabs and other rubble. This appears to have been the collapsed roof of the chamber. This bone was evidently deposited while the chamber was still open.

Report: charcoal; sealed beneath Roman and later alluvium soil in the top of a tree-throw hold beneath the cursus bank; a similar stratigraphic position to OxA-2074. This soil horizon is in the top of the soil fill of the tree hole and since the lower fill contained little charcoal the sample may well post date the tree-throw rather than being derived from charcoal already in the soil where the tree was growing. The sample will provide a terminus post quem for construction of the cursus since it underlies the associated internal gravel bank, which was clearly undisturbed at this point. As such it provides a possible check on the early dates HAR-6477 and HAR-6478. This sample is one of a series related to tree-throw holes with associated worked flints.

Report: Hazleton North- Human bone; right femur; this bone is from skeleton 1, the last burial in the entrance of the north chambered area. The skeleton was practically complete and was fully articulated (Saville 1990, fig 135). It cannot have been moved after burial (Saville 1990, 89; 125). The skeleton was found within context (267), which was sealed by the collapse of the entrance-blocking orthostat (273) and then by (612), a layer of stones from the collapsed roof of the entrance passage.

Comment (subm): date is too early for this level; however, similar date from Knap of Howar (Papa Westray) shows that Neolithic people were present on the islands by this point, and this early date probably indicates some earlier activity recorded into a later level on site. As with OxA-1080, small animal remains possibly not very suitable for close sequence dating.

Report: Hazleton North- Antler; this antler was found in context 314, one of the dumps of rubble (soil, marl, and stone fragments) on which the cairn structure was built (adjacent to orthostat 408, a fine-Grained limestone slab in the southwest corner of the north chamber). The source of this rubble appears to have been the spoil from quarrying stone for the cairn's construction (Saville 1990, 243). Many other antlers were found in the quarry primary fills. It is assumed that this antler was used as a quarrying tool. The antler cannot be more recent than the construction of the cairn, and if it was used in quarrying it cannot be more than a few years older than the cairn.

Report: Willington Quarry - charcoal; the group consists of a spread in the west that could be tree-throw related that contained a charcoal-rich deposit 299, a clear tree-throw with pottery from main infill to north-west (364/5), and some internal pits that contained pottery and charcoal (292 and 291). The tree-throw 364 did not contain dateable material - but both internal pits and spread to the west did. As the tree-throw contained an early to middle Neolithic pot from within the fill, and an early to middle Neolithic pot came from the internal pits and the spread, there is a good argument for association. It is very unlikely that the pits predate the tree-throw, as they would have been destroyed in the formation of the tree-throw and therefore they would appear to be all contemporary. 291 was a homogenous deposit of greyish orange sandy clay within a small pit that also contained Peterborough- and Plain Bowl-style pottery, and a single flake.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the sample came from a small pit 1432, 0.86m long, 0.43m wide, and 0.36m deep, containing three deposits (1435, 1434, and 1433). The pit was located within the interior of the causewayed enclosure. The samples have been extracted from the primary fill 1433 - a greyish brown sand silt with infrequent lumps and flecks of Charcoal, which is slumped against the sides of the feature. The pit contains more than 0.6kg of worked flint and over 2.2kg of Mildenhall ware. Most of these finds come from the primary deposit. The pit touches no other features, but has been truncated by 0.3m by modern ploughing. The pit was cut into the glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel, and was sealed by 0.3m of modern ploughsoil. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable before excavation began.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the two samples came from a small pit 5819, 1.13m diameter and 0.26m deep, containing two deposits (5820 and 5821). Both samples come from the primary fill 5821 - a dark greyish brown silt sand with frequent flecks of Charcoal, which contains 937g of Mildenhall ware and 1404g of worked flint. No finds were found in the top deposit. The feature is in contact with no other archaeological cuts or deposits, and is in a small group with two other Neolithic pits (5817 and 5758). The pit cuts a glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel and is sealed by 0.3m of modern sandy ploughsoil. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable.

Report: charcoal; a combined sample of 64 and 69, from F28, from the primary infill of the second cut in a sequence of at least four in a segment of the main inner ditch on the east side of the inner enclosure. The sample is combined from well defined lens of discoloured 'ashy' sand on the bottom of the feature and from the layer immediately above this. The layers in question lay against the end of the recut where it truncates the infill of the primary cut. It is possible that they had weathered out of a deposit of discoloured sand and charcoal in the secondary infill of the primary cut, exposed in this edge.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Charcoal; the sample came from a small pit 103, 0.75m wide and 0.42m deep, containing a single deposit, 102. The pit was located close to a segment of one of the causewayed enclosure ditches in the north-east corner of the site. The sample was fill 102, a black sand silt, which contained a small amount of Mildenhall ware (0.4kg), a very large cache (6.8kg) of cores, chippings, and unfinished flint tools (like nearby pit 98), and infrequent lumps and flecks of Charcoal. The west side of the pit was cut by an Iron Age ditch 111, with a single fill 110. The pit was cut into the glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel, and was sealed by 0.3m of modern ploughsoil. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable before excavation began.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Plant macrofossil; carbonised; recut (251) of north end of causewayed enclosure ditch 13930, part of middle circuit with seven deposits. Both samples come from the tertiary fill, which contains 356g of Mildenhall Ware and 2492g of flint, largely consisting of waste material-cores, chipping, and unfinished tools. Two pits (96 and 103) with exceptionally large amounts of waste flint material, suggesting a flintworking area in this part of this site, lie to the immediate north. Radiocarbon dates from both pits (series A) are in the region of c 3600 cal BC. An east-west late Iron Age linear feature 09/211 cuts the north end of the recut. The surrounding natural is a glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel. Deposit 251 is undisturbed by late Iron Age linear cut 209/211, which cuts the north end of the recut. The watertable is c 1.4m below the stripped surface.

Report: charcoal; the fill h was the charcoal-rich layer immediately above the base of the postpipe; it may be interpreted as either material fallen into the hole when the post was removed, or the charred edge of the post which disintegrated on its removal. The identification of oak only from the postpipe and lower subsidence layers makes the latter interpretation the most likely.

Carbon Date. 2763BC. Late Neolithic Carbon Dates

Report: Hazleton North- Animal bone; ; an incomplete skeleton of a perinatal sheep or goat was found in context (412), the primary fill of the south chamber. Although scattered by later disturbance, it is very likely that these bones were articulated when deposited in the chamber (Saville 1990, 209-11). Perinatal sheep/goat bones were found only in the south chamber, so it seems unlikely that any could be residual or intrusive. Context (412) was sealed between a paved floor, context (452) (or (453), the pre-cairn surface, where paving was absent), and (352), a horizontal layer of limestone slabs. This appears to have been the collapsed roof of the chamber. The perinatal sheep/goat was evidently deposited while the chamber was still open.

Subm RJB 1987. Comment (subm): Great Langdale samples come from two types of axe production site; stratigraphical evidence suggests that these were broadly successive. With BM-2625, -2626, -2627, suggests change in production methods occurred early to mid 5th millennium BP.

Report: Hazleton North- Animal bone; four elements of a roe deer foreleg (radius, ulna, carpal, and metacarpal) were found scattered in a restricted area of (323), the lower fill of the passage of the south chambered area. These are the only roe deer remains in the chambered areas and must represent an articulated limb at the time of deposition, although the bones have subsequently been disturbed (Saville 1990, 211; fig 205). The context (323) was formed directly on the unpaved floor of the passage, in the course of the period of burial activity (there are human bones within and on top of this deposit) (Saville 1990, 82; fig 95, section 8). Given the completeness of the roe deer foreleg, and the near-absence of roe deer remains in pre-cairn contexts, it is highly improbable that these remains are residual in context (323). It is also difficult to conceive how an articulated foreleg could have been introduced (after the burial phase) to a context sealed by the collapse of the passage roof.

Report: Hazleton North- Human bone; right femur; this bone is from a partially-articulated right leg, found in the entrance of the south chambered area (Saville 1990, 95). It was paired with the left femur <7837>, and therefore cannot belong to any other dated individual. The skeleton was found within context (354), which directly overlay the paving (353) in the entrance to the south chambered area, and was sealed by (11), a layer of stones and soil from the collapsed roof of the entrance passage. The southern end of these layers had been disturbed (probably by recent ploughing), creating a mixed deposit (236), but (354) was regarded as an intact burial deposit (Saville 1990, 88; fig 95). The articulated leg must therefore pre-date the end of burial activity, and post-date the construction of the monument.

Report: Willington Quarry - charcoal; from the dark brownish-black sandy clay fill of a small pit-type feature. The deposit was rich in environmental and ceramic remains, including Mortlake-style Peterborough Ware. Analysis of the environmental sample identified some modern straw contamination - unfortunately there was machine activity above this area before excavation could be undertaken. To the west of the pit is a probable burnt tree-throw (420). 458 is the lower and the predominant of two fills.

Report: Hazleton North- Human bone; right femur; this bone is from a partially-articulated right leg, found in the entrance of the south chambered area (Saville 1990, 95). It was paired with the left femur <7837>, and therefore cannot belong to any other dated individual. The skeleton was found within context (354), which directly overlay the paving (353) in the entrance to the south chambered area, and was sealed by (11), a layer of stones and soil from the collapsed roof of the entrance passage. The southern end of these layers had been disturbed (probably by recent ploughing), creating a mixed deposit (236), but (354) was regarded as an intact burial deposit (Saville 1990, 88; fig 95). The articulated leg must therefore pre-date the end of burial activity, and post-date the construction of the monument.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Carbonised residue; on sherd of Mildenhall ware (<5g); the sample came from a small pit 2340, 0.75m long, 0.63m wide, and 0.26m deep, containing one deposit 2341 - a brown silt sand with frequent small lumps and flecks of Charcoal. Located within the interior of the causewayed enclosure. The pit contained 2666g of Mildenhall Ware and 445g of worked flint. The pit is in contact with no other features, and is one of a small group of four Neolithic features (2340, 2337, 2403, and 2398), which appear to be contemporary. Modern ploughing has truncated it by 0.3m. The pit cuts a glacio-fluvial drift deposit of acidic sand and gravel.The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable.

Report: animal bone; from the primary fill of the ring-ditch, found intermittently along the base and sides of the original profile after most had been dug out later in the Neolithic period during a re-cutting of the ring-ditch. It was stratified below the second fill (represented by OxA-4059 and OxA-4060) in a cream/buff calcareous clayey silt. Both OxA-4057 and OxA-4058 came from the same context but from different parts of the ring-ditch.

Report: wood; this tree is the westernmost of a group of trees now lying exposed in the intertidal silts at Quarr. The trees lie directly upon a peat deposit which itself overlies, in certain places, deposits of worked and sometimes burnt flint. The trees, recently exposed by erosion, are beginning to erode. This sample is taken from sound wood, and is made up of rings 23-43 from a 260-year ring sequence.

Report: Bone, id as human, Homo sapiens sapiens, metatarsal, CNU/5, one of four individuals represented from Creag nan Uamh caves, Assynt, Highland, Scotland. Subm C Bonsall and A Kitchener 1995. Comment (subm): this series OxA-5757 to -5761 comes from deposits that also produced an abundant Pleistocene fauna of mainly Mid- to Late Devensian age. Dates were intended to test the possibility of pre-Holocene human occupation of the caves; results indicate a Neolithic age for the human remains and a medieval context for the antler artefact.

Carbon Date. 2712BC. Late Neolithic Carbon Dates

Report: Willington Quarry - charcoal; the group consists of a spread in the west that could be tree-throw related that contained a charcoal-rich deposit 299, a clear tree-throw with pottery from its main infill to the north-west (364/5), and some internal pits that contained pottery and charcoal (292 and 291). The tree-throw 364 did not contain dateable material - but both internal pits and spread to the west did. As the tree-throw contained an early to middle Neolithic pot from within the fill, and an early to middle Neolithic pot came from the internal pits and the spread, there is good argument for association. It is very unlikely that the pits predate the tree-throw, as they would have been destroyed in the formation of the tree-throw and therefore they would appear to all be contemporary. 299 was a distinct deposit of dark grey clay with charcoal. The deposit represents either a dump of burnt material, or an episode of burning. The deposit immediately overlies a pale silt, 317. This was probably continuous with 297/8 to the north, which contained Peterborough- and Mildenhall-style pottery.

Report: Bone, id as human adult ?male, PC5, from NW chamber of chambered cairn at Parc le Breos Cwm, Gower, West Glamorgan, Wales. Subm A Whittle. Comment (subm): the 12 individuals selected for dating represent 30% of the mortuary population. The dates confirm the expected earlier Neolithic period, but leave unresolved questions of cairn style development within the Cotswold-Severn tradition. This determination and possibly OxA-6494, -6489 could indicate a rather longer span of continuous use for this tomb than that suggested for Hazleton North. [Further comment in refs.]

Report: human bone; the crouched inhumation burial lay at the base of a grave pit cut through the first phase ring-ditch fill (as of OxA-4057 and OxA-4058), but it is uncertain whether it had lain below the bulk of the second phase fill (as of OxA-4059 and OxA-4060) or been cut through it. It was, therefore, the earliest or the latest context associated with the second phase of infilling, but was filled with brown clayey loam that is very similar to that of the second phase of infilling. The burial lay immediately adjacent to the single causewayed entrance.

Report: Bone, id as human adult, PC9, from NE chamber of chambered cairn at Parc le Breos Cwm, Gower, West Glamorgan, Wales. Subm A Whittle. Comment (subm): the 12 individuals selected for dating represent 30% of the mortuary population. The dates confirm the expected earlier Neolithic period, but leave unresolved questions of cairn style development within the Cotswold-Severn tradition. This date and OxA-6489, -6490 could indicate a rather longer span of continuous use for this tomb than that suggested for Hazleton North. [Further comment in refs.]

Report: Charcoal, id as Salicaceae, IWCAC 2027.9047, from foreshore sediments on Quarr Beach, Wootton Creek, Isle of Wight, England. Subm R G Tomalin. Comment (R Loader): a series of 7 samples (OxA-7161 to -7165 and -7182 to -7183) were taken during archaeological survey of coast and hinterland centred on Wootton Creek. This charcoal sample was recovered from interface between saltmarsh sediments with quantities of burnt and worked flint, including microliths and picks (site Q99) and an overlying peat layer. Sample provides a date for the transition from saltmarsh to woodland at this location and a taq for the lithics. [further comment in ref.]

Report: Hazleton North- Human bone; left femur; this bone is one of a cluster of disarticulated bones found in context (267) of the entrance to the north chambered area, attributed to an infant, individual B, and evidently not belonging to another identified or dated individual (Saville 1990, 125; fig 136). This burial apparently predates the burial of skeleton 1, but its stratigraphic relationship with other burials in the north entrance is ambiguous. The bones were found within context (267), which was sealed by the collapse of the entrance-blocking orthostat (273) and then by (612), a layer of stones from the collapsed roof of the entrance passage.

Most of the first fill represented by OxA-4057 and OxA-4058 was dug out some time in the middle/late Neolithic, respecting much the same alignment as had earlier prevailed. The second fill was either a deliberate backfilling or a gradual accumulation. Both OxA-4059 and OxA-4060 come from the same context but different parts of the ring-ditch.

Report: charcoal; from a sandy silt and gravel deposit (1009) near the bottom of a bowl-shaped pit (F6), cut by a ring ditch thought to be Iron Age in date (B10, F2). The sample comprised of a scatter of charcoal fragments approximately 0.8m below the surface and 0.5m below the top of the pit. A larger charcoal sample was collected from overlying context (1008) but it was felt that the context was too secondary to be of use in dating the feature.

Report: charcoal; this sample is from the primary fill (1020) of ring ditch (F1). The fill consisted of sandy silt and gravel, which had accumulated on the outside edge of the ring-ditch, cut on its western side. It seems likely that the charcoal was deposited in the edge of the cut for the ring-ditch soon after its construction.

Report: Bone, id as human, Homo sapiens sapiens, immature femur, CNU/3, one of four individuals represented from Creag nan Uamh caves, Assynt, Highland, Scotland. Subm C Bonsall and A Kitchener 1995. Comment (subm): this series OxA-5757 to -5761 comes from deposits that also produced an abundant Pleistocene fauna of mainly Mid- to Late Devensian age. Dates were intended to test the possibility of pre-Holocene human occupation of the caves; results indicate a Neolithic age for the human remains and a medieval context for the antler artefact.
