Carbon Date. 2000BC. Middle Bronze Age Carbon Dates
Report: Swale-Ure Washlands: F45, Nosterfield- Wood; a Russian core and monolith tins were used to sample organic from a collapsed feature labelled 'F45' at the Nosterfield sand and gravel quarry. The pit from which the samples were taken has since been stripped by the gravel company. The pits or collapsed features are interpreted as 'probably natural features within the already forming fluvioglacial gravels bordering the River Ure' (Tipping 2000). The section occurs in a gravel quarry, where it was exposed temporarily during quarry excavation. The collapse features probably formed in the gravels as a result of cavern collapse in the underlying limestone. The collapse features would then quickly fill up with Sediment.

Report: Willington Quarry - charcoal; from a context sealed by alluvium, and excavated, recorded, and sampled in hurried conditions. The deposit was formed of charcoal-rich clay 1.5m across, overlain by reddened clay (scorched?). The location, context, and broad morphology of the deposit, and its similarity to other features recorded in more detail, has led to its interpretation as a burnt deposit resulting from fire clearance and it was sampled specifically to recover suitable material for radiocarbon dating.

Report: charcoal; the charcoal was sieved from two 1kg samples of primary gellifracted chalk infill of the shallow chalk-cut side ditch of the monument. This fill (context 5) lies no more than 1m below the present surface and is subject to rootlet interference. Some military disturbance is evident in the ditch (contexts 9-11) but does not affect the sample. Two samples (now combined) were taken 10cm above the floor of the ditchand 10-15cm below the overlying context 4. Context 4 represents the later weathering and denudation of the monument.

Report: The Rye area project: Pewis Marsh (Pewis 1)- Peat; -1.29 - -1.34m OD, pH 7.8, 76.0% LOI; sample Pewis 1.3 is taken from a unit of Woody Peat (unit C), 30-35cm below a contact with organic-rich clay (unit B). The solid geology of the area around Pewis Marsh is the Hastings Bed Group (mainly sandstones, siltstones, and clays). The watertable at the site is close to the surface (within 0.5m). The depth from which the sample is taken (2.60-2.65m) precludes any possibility of modern rootlet penetration. Pollen assemblages around the sample indicate successional reversal from poor fen (dominated by Betula) to fen carr (dominated by Alnus glutinosa) at the time of Sediment deposition.

Report: peat; the peat core was taken from a very narrow river terrace downslope from the archaeological site and above the present stream bed of the Wye. Builder's spoil had been dumped on the surface approximately 6 months before sampling but this and some surface peat was removed before peat coring was attempted. The sample contains carbonate and humic acids. The nearness of the water table is not known since the hydrology of the whole site is puzzling. The plateau above the sample site is very wet and the water table appears perched. As the sample was wet peat, presumably the water table is near. The sample was taken approximately 45cm from the original surface (taking into account the removal of some surface peat during sampling).

Report: Collagen from bone fragments id as cattle by M Harman, ref L917/A/2, from lower fill of one of 6 similar pits, associated with formal deposits of animal bones, flint artefacts, a Group I axe and Grooved Ware sherds; another of these pits dated by BM-2706, from SW end of multiperiod cemetery site at Radley Barrow Hills, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, England. Comment (A Barclay, OAU): this and BM-2706 are consistent and suggest Late Neolithic dates for these features; results also comparable with BM-2712 and -2713 for Late Neolithic ring ditch.

Report: charcoal; from a layer of comminuted charcoal, wood ash, and calcined flints (perhaps a levelled burnt mound) which lay outside of, and was stratigraphically unconnected with, the ring-ditch. It is from the second of three layers (above that which yielded 7 (H7)) which survived plough truncation because they had slumped within an earlier linear hollow. The layer is contiguous with the fill of a rectangular pit (H4) which lay within the spread of burnt material, and covered a hearth (H5) next to the pit.

Report: Geoarchaeology of the Trent tributaries - waterlogged wood; analysis of LiDAR, aerial photography, and borehole records indicated that a major palaeochannel of the Idle was located within this area, close to Fountains Farm. Field investigation confirmed the presence of a visible depression, which was cored and sampled (FN01). However, cleaned drainage ditches approximately 500m west of FN01 demonstrated that organic-rich sediments were preserved over extensive areas of the floodplain. Large tree remains near the base of the organic-rich sediments suggested burial of mature floodplain woodland at some point in time. A representative section through these floodplain sediments was cleaned, recorded and sampled for environmental assessment and dating. Radiocarbon sample (FN05) is from the base of the woody peat. The stratigraphy and sedimentology of the deposits within the ditch section suggest aggradation within a backswamp floodplain wetland of the River Idle. The sediments were moist throughout and the watertable was encountered at the base of the ditch, approximately 1.9m below the ground surface. With the exception if the upper 0.4m (modern topsoil development), no evidence of root penetration was observed in the recorded section.

Charcoals from these spreads are thought to represent the 'working life' of the trough. Definition between the layers of burnt material was not clear (often relying on slight changes in colour, density, and shifts in proportions of Charcoal to silt etc) but they were all well-compacted enough to suggest they were not residual or reworked.

Report: Swale-Ure Washlands: Ripon Hanson Quarry- Wood; the sample was part of a larger log (60 x 25 x 15cm) from the upper 1m of gravel. This sample comes from the upper gravel sequence that has been sampled for OSL dates of a site about 100m away and at about the same stratigraphic level. The gravels in which it was found are thought to be of mid-Holocene age from shell fragments within the gravels. We have also extracted a 1m monolith about 25m from the site of the Wood. This shows dark grey clay that grades upwards into a series of thin sand layers and clay. This appears to be Sediment from an abandoned meander. The Wood was found near the top of the gravels that underlie this Sediment.

Report: Birstall Watermead Country Park- Charcoal; charcoal from the latest layer of shattered stone and charcoal, which overlay other burnt spread layers around the timber-lined trough. Charcoals from these spreads are thought to represent the 'working life' of the trough. Definition between the layers of burnt material was not clear (often relying on slight changes in colour, density, and shifts in proportions of Charcoal to silt etc) but they were all well-compacted enough to suggest they were not residual or reworked.

Report: Birstall Watermead Country Park- Charcoal; charcoal found within the cut of hearth feature 318. Stones lining the feature were reddened on their upper faces (ie burnt in situ). The charcoal represents the final heating episode of the hearth and may be contemporary with the final heating episode of the trough. Charcoal from fill 317 is more likely to represent the final heating episode; charcoal in fill 315 may be reworked.

Report: Bestwall Quarry 2004-7 - waterlogged wood; -2.35m OD; the sample was obtained from a monolith column in the peat deposit at a depth of 2.38m (base of peat). The sample comprised sedge peat containing macrofossils. There was no evidence for disturbance or intrusion. The local geology is valley gravels overlain with sandy acidic topsoils and subsoils. The waterlogged peat feature was contained within the gravel horizon. Eighteenth- to nineteenth-century field drains had been laid on top of the peat deposit. Approximately 0.5m of topsoil had been removed.

The best interpretation of this hollow, which contained over 50 fragments of Quercus sp. root, is that it is a hole left by the upper part of a large root or buttress, which partly burnt and partly rotted after soil had accumulated around it when the tree had fallen.

Report: Birstall Watermead Country Park- Charcoal; charcoal from the latest layer of shattered stone and charcoal, which overlay other burnt spread layers around the timber-lined trough. Charcoals from these spreads are thought to represent the 'working life' of the trough. Definition between the layers of burnt material was not clear (often relying on slight changes in colour, density, and shifts in proportions of Charcoal to silt etc) but they were all well-compacted enough to suggest they were not residual or reworked.

Charcoals from these spreads are thought to represent the 'working life' of the trough. Definition between the layers of burnt material was not clear (often relying on slight changes in colour, density, and shifts in proportions of Charcoal to silt etc) but they were all well-compacted enough to suggest they were not residual or reworked.

Report: Birstall Watermead Country Park- Charcoal; charcoal from the earliest layer of shattered stone and charcoal, sealed beneath other burnt spread layers, which arc around the timber-lined trough. Charcoals from these spreads are thought to represent the 'working life' of the trough. Definition between the layers of burnt material was not clear (often relying on slight changes in colour, density, and shifts in proportions of charcoal to silt etc) but they were all well-compacted enough to suggest they were not residual or reworked.

Report: Ribble Valley - waterlogged wood; Alnus/Betula sp., single fragment; the sample was organic detritus from a thick sandy gravel flood layer towards the base of a sequence of flood-laminated palaeochannel fill. The sequence of flood laminations was sampled from a core located in the centre of a palaeochannel with surface expression from lower Ribble terrace 3. The organic materials were incorporated within a thick sandy gravel flood lamination 0.4m above the underlying channel gravels. 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. There is no evidence for bioturbation or downwards root penetration, because the flood laminations are undisturbed. 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 sample was not in situ, however it is locally derived and equivalent in age to the flood deposit. Organic flood trash of this type, where the character of plant remains (cell and tissue structure) is still discernible, is unlikely to predate the flood by more than 10-20 years.

Report: animal bone; the bone deposit was up to 0.8m thick and covered an area of 10-15? metres, and contained abundant cattle teeth and bone fragments. Loss from ploughing and the construction of an anthrax pit means that the original deposit may have been somewhat larger. Most of the teeth are from maxillae (upper jaws).

Report: animal bone; the bone deposit was up to 0.8m thick and covered an area of 10-15? metres, and contained abundant cattle teeth and bone fragments. Loss from ploughing and the construction of an anthrax pit means that the original deposit may have been somewhat larger. Most of the teeth are from maxillae (upper jaws). They and the other bones were scattered at random, but their distributions form a single cluster over and around the grave.

Report: Peat, IWCAC 2173 2010, from cores taken through up to 10m of sediment at Ranelagh Spit at the mouth of 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. The site dated by OxA-7161 to -7164 provides one of the key sequences for coastal evolution and sea level rise in the eastern Solent, and the four dates have been used in the creation of a sea level curve for the Solent area.

Report: St Osyth Lodge Farm- Carbonised residue; on sherd of Mildenhall Ware (<5g); the sample came from a small pit 1189, 0.87m long, 0.8m wide, and 0.35m deep, containing two deposits (1190 and 1191), located within the interior of the causewayed enclosure. The pit contained 73g of Mildenhall Ware and 16g of worked flint. The top deposit 1191, from which the sherd comes, contain most of the finds and fills the bulk of the feature. 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 acidic sand and gravel. The primary deposit 1990 is a light yellowish brown deposit of loose silt sand. The bottom of the pit was c 1m above the watertable.

Report: Bestwall Quarry 2004-7 - waterlogged wood; -1.97m OD; the sample was obtained from a monolith column in the peat deposit at a depth of 2m below the stripped surface. There was no evidence for disturbance or intrusion. The local geology was valley gravels overlain with sandy acidic topsoils and subsoils. The waterlogged peat feature was contained within the gravel horizon. Eighteenth to nineteenth-century field drains had been laid on top of the peat deposit. Approximately 0.5m of topsoil had been removed.

Report: Ribble Valley - sediment; humic acid fraction; the material is compacted well-humified peat that overlies coarse channel gravels. The sequence was sampled from a core located in the centre of a palaeochannel with surface expression from upper Ribble terrace 2. The peat layer is 0.15-0.2m in thickness and buried by laminated flood silts. The organic materials are in situ, and comprise soft plant matter and humic acid compounds. The deposit is buried by a further 0.2m of flood-laminated silt. There is no evidence of bioturbation or downwards root penetration, because the flood laminations are undisturbed. Downwards root penetration within the peat is possible given the nature of peat deposits, as is the migration of different organic, particularly fulvic acids. Roots appear not to have penetrated the overlying flood-laminated silts. 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 0.5m below the surface.

Report: Geoarchaeology of the Trent tributaries - waterlogged wood; nationally important Mesolithic remains have been recorded from Misterton Carr (Buckland and Dolby 1973). Analysis of LiDAR, aerial photographs, and borehole information as part of this project demonstrated the presence of a number of organic channels and wetland areas. Field inspection of Misterton Carr indicated that the peat-rich sediments are now of very variable thickness and many are extremely thin and desiccated. A representative section through these floodplain sediments was cleaned, recorded, and sampled for environmental assessment and dating. This section was excavated through the area where the peat deposit was thickest and where it was moist (ie with the greatest environmental potential). This sample was from the base of the woody peat. The stratigraphy and sedimentology of the deposits within the ditch section suggest aggradation within a backswamp floodplain wetland of the River Idle. The sediments were moist throughout and the watertable was encountered at the base of the ditch, approximately 1.9m below the ground surface. With the exception of the upper 0.4m (modern topsoil development), no evidence of root penetration was observed in the recorded section.

Report: Birstall Watermead Country Park- Charcoal; charcoal from the earliest layer of shattered stone and charcoal, sealed beneath other burnt spread layers, which arc around the timber-lined trough. Charcoals from these spreads are thought to represent the 'working life' of the trough. Definition between the layers of burnt material was not clear (often relying on slight changes in colour, density, and shifts in proportions of charcoal to silt etc) but they were all well-compacted enough to suggest they were not residual or reworked.

Report: Bone, id as human adult female, PC12, from passage 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-6495 indicate a secondary phase of reuse of the monument for burial at a Late Neolithic or Beaker horizon, and invite questions about the chronological provenance of other undated passage mortuary deposits in transepted chambered cairns in southern Britain.

Report: Wood charcoal, from Layer M 1d, lowest layer but one in the mound, close to pit M 12, of burnt mound at Graeanog, Clynnog, Gwynedd, Wales. Comment (subm): CAR-713, -714 and -715 range between 2577 and 1880 cal BC (2 sigma their contexts stratigraphically represent the first period of activity on the site, centred on Pit M 12. CAR-715 is apparently incongruous, since elsewhere on site Layer M 1d produced dates belonging to the later group; M 1d is probably not as homogeneous as it looked. [Further comment in ref.]

Report: Bone, id as bulked sample of two cattle mandibles, from ditch terminal at Rectory Farm, Godmanchester, Cambridgeshire, England. Subm F McAvoy. Comment (subm): date contrasts with OxA-4360 obtained on ion-exchanged gelatin from bone, which is more in line with previous determinations. Comment (lab, abridged): the bones were pretreated by the Glasgow Univ Radiocarbon Lab using the 'total collagen' extract. Since the carbon yield was inadequate for radiometric counting, the sample was measured by AMS in Tucson... Bone protein preservation on the site was generally poor, which can often result in unreliable 14C determinations. The delta-13C content was more depleted than would be expected, and this suggests possible environmental contamination by younger carbon in the ditch.

Report: Birstall Watermead Country Park- Charcoal; charcoal from the earliest layer of shattered stone and charcoal, sealed beneath other burnt spread layers, which arc around the timber-lined trough. Charcoals from these spreads are thought to represent the 'working life' of the trough. Definition between the layers of burnt material was not clear (often relying on slight changes in colour, density, and shifts in proportions of charcoal to silt etc) but they were all well-compacted enough to suggest they were not residual or reworked.
