A Research Framework for the Archaeology of Wales East

are derived from Cadw's Environmental Database for Wales (with six additional
records derived from the SMR), curated by Astrid Caseldine of the University
of Wales College Lampeter. The
summary table (arranged by the ‘primary’ period of their site of origin) are
followed by lists of sites yielding environmental data supplied with the
database. The list of C14 dates relates only to this environmental work - for
other C14 dating see section 2 Cadw Envirnomental Database records listed by Period of site sampled and type of sample Unknown 2 Charcoal 3 Pollen 2 Waterlogged Plant Macrofossils 1 Wood Palaeolithic 2 Animal Bone 1 Molluscs 2 Pollen 1 Wood Mesolithic 2 Animal Bone 3 Charcoal 1 Charred Plant Macrofossils 2 Molluscs 2 Other 4 Pollen 1 Soil 1 Waterlogged Plant Macrofossils Neolithic 7 Animal Bone 5 Charcoal 5 Charred Plant Macrofossils 1 Dendrochronology 1 Fish Bone 1 Insects 5 Molluscs 2 Other 3 Pollen 3 Soil 2 Waterlogged Plant Macrofossils 1 Wood Bronze Age 4 Animal Bone 1 Bird Bone 11 Charcoal 10 Charred Plant Macrofossils 1 Fish Bone 1 Insects 1 Molluscs 14 Pollen 1 Sediment 8 Soil 2 Soil Micromorphology 1 Waterlogged Plant Macrofossils 1 Wood Iron Age 8 Animal Bone 5 Charcoal Iron Age 9 Charred Plant Macrofossils 2 Insects 1 Molluscs 2 Pollen 2 Soil 4 Waterlogged Plant Macrofossils Roman 1 Animal Bone 5 Charred Plant Macrofossils 1 Other 3 Pollen 2 Waterlogged Plant Macrofossils 2 Wood Medieval 6 Animal Bone 1 Bird Bone 1 Botanical remains 8 Charcoal 8 Charred Plant Macrofossils 4 Dendrochronology 3 Fish Bone 4 Insects 3 Molluscs 3 Other 9 Pollen 1 Soil 1 Unknown 3 Waterlogged Plant Macrofossils 5 Wood Multiperiod 2 Charcoal 3 Charred Plant Macrofossils 2 Diatoms 2 Insects 3 Microfossils 4 Molluscs 1 Ostracod 4 Other 76 Pollen 2 Sediment 22 Soil 5 Waterlogged Plant Macrofossils 1 Wood |
