Things to do in Doggerland when you're dead: surviving OIS3 at the northwestern-most fringe of Middle Palaeolithic Europe (2006)
Journal Article
White, M. (2006). Things to do in Doggerland when you're dead: surviving OIS3 at the northwestern-most fringe of Middle Palaeolithic Europe. World Archaeology, 38(4), 547-575. https://doi.org/10.1080/00438240600963031

This paper examines Neanderthal survival skills in Britain. Its starting point is that there are major tensions between the three main sources of relevant information - archaeological, palaeoanthropological and palaeoenvironmental data and their subs...

The Quaternary uplift history of central southern England: evidence from the terraces of the Solent River system and nearby raised beaches (2006)
Journal Article
Westaway, R., Bridgland, D., & White, M. (2006). The Quaternary uplift history of central southern England: evidence from the terraces of the Solent River system and nearby raised beaches. Quaternary Science Reviews, 25(17-18), 2212-2250. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2005.06.005

We have used fluvial (Solent River system) and marine terraces to reconstruct the uplift history of central southern England. In the case of the former, we make the assumption that fluvial incision has been a direct response to surface uplift, with i...

The Palaeolithic occupation of Europe as revealed by evidence from the rivers: data from IGCP 449 (2006)
Journal Article
Bridgland, D., Antoine, P., Limondin-Lozouet, N., Santisteban, J., Westaway, R., & White, M. (2006). The Palaeolithic occupation of Europe as revealed by evidence from the rivers: data from IGCP 449. Journal of Quaternary Science, 21(5), 437-455. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.1042

IGCP 449 (2000-2004), seeking to correlate fluvial records globally, has compiled a dataset of archaeological records from Pleistocene fluvial sequences. Many terrace sequences can now be reliably dated and correlated with marine oxygen isotope stage...

Riparian landscapes and human habitat preferences during the Hoxnian (MIS 11) Interglacial (2006)
Journal Article
Ashton, N., Lewis, S., Parfitt, S., & White, M. (2006). Riparian landscapes and human habitat preferences during the Hoxnian (MIS 11) Interglacial. Journal of Quaternary Science, 21(5), 497-505. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.1032

The archaeological, environmental and geological data from Hoxnian Interglacial (Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 11) sites from Britain are examined to elucidate the type of habitats that humans preferred during this temperate episode. The conclusion is t... Read More about Riparian landscapes and human habitat preferences during the Hoxnian (MIS 11) Interglacial.

The Early Middle Palaeolithic in Britain: archaeology, settlement history and human behaviour (2006)
Journal Article
White, M., Scott, B., & Ashton, N. (2006). The Early Middle Palaeolithic in Britain: archaeology, settlement history and human behaviour. Journal of Quaternary Science, 21(5), 525-541. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.1034

A number of archaeological sites dated to MIS 8 and MIS 7 and containing Early Middle Palaeolithic Levalloisian assemblages can now be identified within the British Palaeolithic record. These provide a mixture of high- and low-resolution signatures,... Read More about The Early Middle Palaeolithic in Britain: archaeology, settlement history and human behaviour.
