Journals
All national, regional, local, period-specific and thematic journals thought likely to contain radiocarbon dates from the study area were trawled – a total of >2,500 volumes relating to 63 different titles. It is likely that other relevant journals exist, and that these will be added to the list as they become known to the authors.
