After one year, my PhD project "Lindisfarne Landscapes" is on Twitter - a lot to catch up on! But this page is not only about the past. It’s about intimate relationships of people & coastal environments, about life, survival, & destruction, and everything inbetween. @RGKahlenberg

@DavidPetts1 That's my best guess so far.

David Petts@DavidPetts1·19 Nis

@LDFLandscapes Gosh - that is narrow. Could it simply be plough furrows?

Knowledge of the crowd needed: What is this undulating surface? For context: The lowermost deposit is till (clay) and the burial of the soil above has been dated to the 17th cent AD. Its upper few cm contain prehistoric charcoal and/or coal. @DavidPetts1

@DavidPetts1 Thank you, David. The pit is too small, but if we assume they are straight parallel features, the distances between two ridges is less than half a meter (scale is 1 m).

English

David Petts@DavidPetts1·19 Nis

@LDFLandscapes hmmm..... I'll ponder- can you work out the precise dimensions?

English

Lindisfarne Landscapes ᴬʳᶜʰᵃᵉᵒˡᵒᵍʸ@LDFLandscapes·19 Nis

@DavidPetts1 The ridges are too close together. The profile is facing east, while the features run NW-SE or NE-SW, so they are even narrower than on the photo.

David Petts@DavidPetts1·18 Nis

@LDFLandscapes my guess would be traces of cord rig - do the dimensions work?

A refresh of the signage at Green Shiel was installed yesterday. The site, one of two Scheduled Monuments on the Reserve, was a settlement over a thousand years ago. #Lindisfarnehistory #archeology ⁦@NE_Northumbria⁩

Here is a fantastic model illustrating the protective role of mangroves (from the exhibit hall of #AGU2022). Will keep it in mind for lectures on sea-level rise mitigation.

Does anyone know papers on computational methods to evaluate similarity/dissimilarity of multivariate datasets from sediment/soil cores - e.g. #pollen? It also has to address the uncertainty of dates, usually 14C. @BES_Palaeo @PalaeoNick @don_o_meara @IapetusDTP @TomCBHill

The #EnglandPeatMap project is mapping the extent, depth and condition of England's #peat. To do this they need a lot of data! Can you help? Do you have existing info on peat depth, grips, gullies, bare peat, haggs & veg coverage? Please get in touch peatmap@naturalengland.org.uk

Dr Christina Smith@weefiddler·12 Tem

And this point is really significant to our ongoing work at Holy Island. As the @ArcDurham @TheDigVenturers excavations show, a vibrant and varied community continues to call the Island home well past the famous AD793 date. Hoping to find more carved stone this year 🤗🤞

The Corpus of Anglo-Saxon Stone Sculpture (CASSS)@AS_Corpus

Billingham was one of the holdings given to the #Lindisfarne community by Bishop Ecgred (AD830-845). This piece is stylistically dated to the mid 9th-mid 10th c, a period of time in which most of the extant #earlymedieval sculpture on Holy Island also seems to have been produced.

@LDFLandscapes @DavidPetts1 Where are you digging? My parents are on holy island this week and would love to wander along and have a look.

Lindisfarne day 10. Sand, sand, sand... Only some centuries ago, vast parts of #Lindisfarne must have been dunefields, even at locations very close to the village. #geoarchaeology

@DavidPetts1 @AndySagePots I'll take a proper photo tomorrow.

@LDFLandscapes Glazed - prob late medieval (or later) @AndySagePots ?

@DavidPetts1 @ArcDurham @TheDigVenturers Loosely packed gravel. Perfect for drainage. It's right on top of the impermeable till, which also makes sense.

David Petts@DavidPetts1·28 Haz

@LDFLandscapes @ArcDurham @TheDigVenturers Blimey! My guess is drainage - any sign of mortar or other bonding??

Lindisfarne day 8: is it bad luck if you dig a soil test pit in the middle of nowhere and find a wall? @DavidPetts1 @ArcDurham @TheDigVenturers Or is it related to drainage? 🤔

@DavidPetts1 Let's be consistent and use ONLY tertiary colours. Lime is not dangerous at all, but beware of vermilion!

David Petts@DavidPetts1·17 Şub

Distinction between 'amber' and 'yellow' weather warnings is not intuitive is it? Had to double check which was worst.
