Description
Summary:WE present here a series of ten new radiocarbon dates obtained from charcoal samples collected (1) from sites around Marsden, Yorkshire (Table 1), and formerly stored in the Tolson Memorial Museum, Huddersfield, and (2) from samples collected on upland Pennine sites during the past two years. A single new date from Marsh Benham, Berkshire, is also presented. This short series of dates has some bearing on the relative ages of what Buckley 1 termed the ‘broad blade’ and ‘narrow blade’ industries.
