Abstract
The need to understand how past societies dealt with major climate events has been acknowledged by scholarship, however the existing archaeological record in most upland areas of Northern Britain and Ireland is not granular enough to avoid false ‘cause and effect’ conclusions and requires refinement to generational levels where possible. This project is an effort to generate a more granular and refined chronology through expanding existing chronologies of selected archaeological zones using radiocarbon dating of untested archived samples, new samples and re-evaluation of finds by typologies.
