UPDATE for OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES

NEW EVIDENCE 
Tonight I searched through all that I could find on the net and elsewhere regarding the distribution of any serious effort over the past 200 years or so regarding the published; investigative evaluation of Scotland's prehistory and its contribution to the advancement of its Archaeological birthright. 

I fear that certain past conclusions are well in error and, given our findings from the moss of Cruden are in need of "SOME REAPPRAISAL" 

Our conclusions,based upon our findings from our investigations on the moss of cruden; when now taken in conjunction with important geological /geomorphological papers/documents which have become available within the past 2 or 3 years;are about to be vindicated I feel' 

I am receiving some very respected opinions. 

How long that will take, due to the completely unnecessarily imposed inertia of "Past Hypotheses";I know not. 

NEW EVIDENCE

Tonight I searched through all that I could find on the net and elsewhere regarding the distribution of  any serious effort over the past 200 years or so regarding the published; investigative evaluation of Scotland's prehistory and its contribution to the advancement of  its Archaeological birthright.

I fear that certain past conclusions are well in error and, given our findings from the moss of Cruden are in need of  "SOME REAPPRAISAL"

THE MOSS OF CRUDEN and ITS PLACE IN THE CENOZOIC / CAINOZOIC ERA

It seems that as recently as 10 years ago a major re-identification of the "Eras" was called for and has since been  adopted.

Enter:-  "THE CENOZOIC / CAINOZOIC".

Please ref. below:-
Merritt, J.W., Auton, C.A., Connell, E.R., Hall, A.M. and Peacock, J.D. 2003. Cainozoic geology and landscape evolution of north-east Scotland. Memoir of the British Geological Survey, Sheets 66E, 67, 76E, 77, 86E, 87W, 87E, 95, 96W, 96E and 97 (Scotland).

Things are becoming a bit clearer don't you think?

I will follow up soon with further information.

TOPOGRAPHY OF SCOTLAND'S MAIN FAULT LINES

TOPOGRAPHY OF SCOTLAND'S MAIN FAULT LINES

The above presentation is a copy from one published in snh.gov.uk/docs/A33764848.pdf. 

It shows not only the "Two shores of Eden", as prefaced in my previous Blogs; but also The Solway Line (suture of the Lapetus Ocean) . This was the Ocean which was squeezed out of existence with the collision between  what  is now known as Scotland and what is now known as England and is seminal to the proposition that Scotland has a unique, yet neglected; contribution to make as regards the story which she holds. 

However, as it ever does; the worm is definitely turning!

Right now I cannot see where past conclusions, made due to findings from, the mud flats of "Swanscome", the beaches of "Boxgrove" and from the sands of "Happisburgh"; properly fit in with the real palaeolithic story of the British Isles!

SOMETHING TO DO WITH OROGENIES

Copy of communication to Society of Antiquaries of Scotland


Please refer to:-www.field-studies-council.org/fieldstudies/documents/vol5.2_137.pdf 

This document covers most of the current land south of that as published in http://www.snh.gov.uk/docs/A337648.pdf. 

Comparison of the two documents with one another suggests to me that the soils described in the former are much more ancient than those described in the latter. 

Check it out, if you will.

The more I study and investigate past Published Archaeological conclusions regarding the "Palaeolithic in Britain" the more I see a lack of respect having been given to the advances of soil science information as regards "Palaeolithic Scotland" in particular. 

This lack of respect  appears to even flow out of our national press under tunnels of silence which they appear to afford.

Watch this space.

TWO SHORES OF EDEN'S PLACE IN INFORMATION GATHERING REGARDING PLATE TECTONIC INVESTIGATION.

All of my current investigations as to how our "Geological Elders" are attempting to interpret the plate tectonics of our planet indicate that they are looking at the "Macro" rather than considering the "micro".

This is extremely important as they will accomplish nothing if they do not consider the relative movements of the Great Glen, Highland Boundary and Southern Upland faults.

Palaeolithic findings in Britain articles, which I have read in the past; have never ever brought such major geological, geomorphological  influences even into consideration.

Why are they keeping it so quiet?

TWO SHORES OF EDEN AND THE SOUTHERN UPLAND ENIGMA

Due to responses I have received to my internet communications it is becoming obvious that our findings from The Moss of Cruden are bringing into question some past theories and conclusions based on some previously "official" investigations carried out in Buchan and elsewhere on the British mainland .

Researches are showing that the southern upland fault and "Peebles" findings were perhaps much later than the "Two Shores of Eden" findings.
