Overview

Geoarchaeological assessment clarifies depositional history and preservation potential in Barking, London, indicating rich archaeological insights.

Key Points

  • The aim is to assess the age, nature, and depositional history of geological deposits at the site.
  • Conducted a geoarchaeological borehole survey of 0.6 hectares.
  • Collected sub-samples for palaeoenvironmental assessment and scientific dating.
  • Performed radiocarbon and OSL dating on key deposits.
  • Identified significant deposits from the Early Neolithic to Bronze Age.
  • Radiocarbon dating indicated early peat formation around 3425-3375 cal. BC.
  • Poor preservation of diatoms and foraminifera due to aerobic conditions.
