Contemporaneousness of Trackway Construction and Environmental Change: A Dendrochronological Study in Northwest-German Mires
Tree rings provide not only a precise dating tool, but also contain information on environmental change. The well replicated tree ring record of northwest Germany therefore provides environmental implications with immanent, absolute and precise dating from 6703 BC to 931 AD. This offers the opportunity to investigate the environmental context of archaeological finds, if they, too, are dated by dendrochronology. We investigated 13 peat-preserved t…
The comparative analysis of two Pre-Roman Iron Age bog bodies from Northwest Germany using portable X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy
Portable X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (PXRFS) is a non-destructive testing method that can offer objective, on-site information concerning elemental composition. The objective was to better understand Northern European bog environmental chemistry and its diagenetic effects on interred bog bodies, and identify post-discovery preservation procedures applied to the remains. This article discusses the findings regarding two of thirteen bog bodies …
Bog Pines, Track Ways and Man – The Influence of Climate Change on Neolithic Settlements in the Duemmer Area (Northwest Germany)
Dendroecological investigations at Venner Moor (northwest Germany) document climate-driven woodland dynamics and mire development in the period 2450—2050 BC
Excellently preserved subfossil pine and oak tree remains from the bottom layer of raised bog peat were dendroecologically investigated at Venner Moor (northwest Germany). Tree-ring analyses were combined with observations of stem and root morphology, preservation state, mineral soil relief, peat stratigraphy and pollen analysis to reconstruct in great detail environmental changes leading to the start of the raised bog formation. Hydrology was id…
Brief communication: Two and three‐dimensional analysis of bone mass and microstructure in a bog body from the Iron Age
Human remains from peat bogs, called “bog bodies,” have yielded valuable insights into human history because of their excellent preservation of soft tissue. On the other hand, the acidic environment of the peat leads to an extensive demineralization of skeletal elements, complicating their analysis. We studied the skeleton of the bog body “Moora” dated to ∼650 B.C. Nondestructive evaluation of the bone was made using contact X‐rays, peripheral qu…
Environmental change, bog history and human impact around 2900 b.c. in NW Germany–preliminary results from a dendroecological study of a sub-fossil pine woodland at Campemoor, Dümmer Basin
Spectral Induced Polarisation – a Geophysical Method for Archaeological Prospection in Peatlands
Compared to conventional electrical conductivity surveys the spectral induced polarisation (SIP) method measures the frequency dependence of conductivity amplitude and the phase shift between injected current and the resulting voltage signal. The phase shift is related to polarisation effects of materials. Laboratory investigations of peat, wood and soil samples show a considerable variation in the spectra of conductivity amplitude and phase shif…
