Extract

It has been possible recently to correlate some well known Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age finds from the Ancholme Valley, north Lincolnshire, with the stratigraphy of the valley and with the pollen statistical zone scheme. A digest of the material of archaeological interest is presented here together with an account of the investigation of the site of the dugout canoe at Short Ferry, Fiskerton, near Lincoln.

page 81 note 1 It is unfortunate that the printing of the table in Godwin, H., Antiq. J., xx (1940), p. 52Google Scholar, makes it appear that the Stuntney hoard and the Mildenhall Fen settlement belong to zone VIII of the Fenland zone scheme. The conclusion was reached that the Stuntney hoard ‘falls close to zone VII–VIII’ and previously (Godwin, H., Phil. Trans., B (1940), p. 239Google Scholar) the Mildenhall settlement had been placed at the base of zone VII–VIII. Similarly ‘Methwold Fen’ is printed too high in the table. The evidence from these sites does not oppose the correlation which has been made.

page 81 note 3 In the original publication of the pottery from Ingoldmells (Swinnerton 1932, op. cit.) no mention is made of ‘Hallstatt’ and the pottery is referred to as Celtic.
