总结 本文描述了古勒以南约10英里的约克郡哈特菲尔德沼泽的地层和花粉分析。这些沼泽是一个古老的沼泽的残留物,它位于三叠纪砂岩上,没有指示芦苇沼泽初始阶段的底层沉积物。沼泽,其中至少有四个洪水地平线,开始在大西洋时代早期增长。在亚寒带时期开始时的花粉分析揭示了早期的农业实践,同时在泥炭中发现了少量的木炭。农业活动在亚大西洋时代开始时有所增加,但后来有所减少。通过与林肯郡安科尔姆山谷(Ancholme Valley)南费里比(South Ferriby)的一处遗址进行比较,可以看出这种缩减很可能始于罗马-不列颠时代的结束。 在岛上卡尔,布里格,在Ancholme山谷的地层学和考古学汇集在一起,并在青铜器和铁器时代的过渡之间的相关性;亚大西洋时代的开放;和Ancholme山谷的海侵的开始。这种海侵发生在一个相对出现在东盎格鲁沼泽地的时期,这是可能的差异均衡或构造运动发生在这两个地区之间的后期冰期。然而,离岸沙洲存在的可能性使问题复杂化。海侵也表现在雷德伯恩海斯,一个网站约5英里的南部布里格在那里海侵的最大显示,在一个相当晚的日期。覆盖在雷德伯恩海耶斯海侵粘土上的泥炭很可能是罗马-不列颠时代的产物,而且可能在相当大的范围内与古勒的韦斯顿路和林肯郡海岸的英戈德梅尔斯(Ingoldmells)的南费里比(罗马-不列颠遗迹就是在那里被发现的)上层有机沉积物是同时代的。 一个重新评估的网站在Ingoldmells的约会,它似乎是更可比的亨伯地区比那些芬兰。
Summary The stratigraphy and pollen analysis of Hatfield Moors, Yorkshire, about ten miles south of Goole, are described. These moors are the residue of an old raised bog which lies on the Triassic sandstones and has no underlying deposits indicative of an initial phase of reed-swamp. The bog, which has at least four flooding horizons, began to grow in early Atlantic times. Early agricultural practices are revealed by the pollen analyses at the opening of Sub-boreal times, and at the same time small amounts of charcoal are found in the peat. Agricultural activity increased at the beginning of Sub-atlantic times, but was afterwards curtailed. It is suggested by comparison with a site at South Ferriby in the Ancholme Valley, Lincolnshire, that this curtailment may well date from the end of Romano-British times. The stratigraphy and archaeology at Island Carr, Brigg, in the Ancholme Valley are brought together, and a correlation is made between the Bronze Age-Iron Age transition; the opening of Sub-atlantic times; and the onset of a marine transgression of the Ancholme Valley. This transgression occurs during a period of relative emergence in the East Anglian Fenland and it is possible that differential isostatic or tectonic movements have taken place between the two areas during the later part of the post-glacial period. The possibility of the presence of offshore bars, however, complicates the problem. The transgression is also manifested at Redbourne Hayes, a site some five miles to the south of Brigg where the maximum of the transgression is shown, at a rather later date. The peat overlying the transgression clay at Redbourne Hayes probably dates from Romano-British times and is—perhaps within rather wide limits—contemporaneous with the upper organic deposits at South Ferriby (where Romano-British remains were found in situ) at Weston Road, Goole, and at Ingoldmells on the Lincolnshire coast. A reassessment is made of the dating of the site at Ingoldmells in which it appears that the deposits are more comparable with those of the Humber region than with those of the Fenland.
