Chronological variations in handaxes: patterns detected from fluvial archives in north-west Europe (2015)
Journal Article
Bridgland, D., & White, M. (2015). Chronological variations in handaxes: patterns detected from fluvial archives in north-west Europe. Journal of Quaternary Science, 30(7), 623-638. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.2805

The use of handaxe morphology as a cultural and temporal marker within the Quaternary Lower–Middle Palaeolithic record has had a very chequered history, and abuses in the past have led recent generations of archaeologist to reject it out of hand. In... Read More about Chronological variations in handaxes: patterns detected from fluvial archives in north-west Europe.

The use of uplift modelling in the reconstruction of drainage development and landscape evolution in the repeatedly glaciated Trent catchment, English Midlands, UK (2015)
Journal Article
Westaway, R., Bridgland, D., White, T., Howard, A., & White, M. (2015). The use of uplift modelling in the reconstruction of drainage development and landscape evolution in the repeatedly glaciated Trent catchment, English Midlands, UK. Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, 126(4-5), 480-521. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pgeola.2015.06.005

The Trent Valley Palaeolithic Project has recently investigated the Quaternary evolution of the River Trent, the northernmost river system in western Europe with a documented long-timescale terrace staircase. The uppermost and lowermost reaches of th...
