  • The Origins of Tradescant’s ‘India Occidentali’ Wooden Clubs

    Open AccessJoanna Ostapkowicz, Alison Roberts et al.ARTICLEThe Antiquaries Journal2018Cited by: 4References: 24

    This paper focuses on the material study (radiocarbon dating, wood identification and strontium isotope analyses) of four large ‘India occidentali’ clubs, part of the founding collections of the Ashmolean Museum, in Oxford, and originally part of John Tradescant’s ‘Ark’, in Lambeth (1656). During the seventeenth century, the term ‘India occidentali/occidentales’ referred not only to the ‘West Indies’ (its literal translation), but to the Americas…

  • Radiocarbon Dating Wooden Carvings and Skeletal Remains from Pitch Lake, Trinidad

    Open AccessFiona Brock, Joanna Ostapkowicz et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2017Cited by: 2References: 19

    Since the mid-19th century, rare prehistoric wooden carvings and human skeletal remains have been dredged from Pitch Lake, Trinidad, during commercial asphalt mining. Establishing a chronology for these objects is challenging, due to both a lack of stratigraphic and contextual information and the necessity to completely remove any pitch to ensure accurate radiocarbon ( 14 C) dates. A range of solvent extraction protocols was tested to identify th…

  • Tree-Ring Investigation of Holocene Flood-Deposited Wood From the Oneida Lake Watershed, New York State

    Irina P Panyushkina, Steven W Leavitt et al.ARTICLETree-Ring Research2015

    Glacial deposition and fluvial/lacustrine sedimentation interact over terrains in central New York State to preserve a history of geological and hydrological events as well as hydroclimatic transitions. The lower reach of Fish Creek draining the eastern watershed of Oneida Lake, NY, is an area with prominent wood remains. This study explores a collection of 52 logs encased in organic-rich deposits exposed by bank erosion at three locations along …

  • A multiproxy environmental investigation of Holocene wood from a submerged conifer forest in Lake Huron, USA

    Open AccessR Douglas Hunter, Irina P Panyushkina et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2006

    Remains of a Holocene drowned forest in southern Lake Huron discovered in 12.5 m of water (164 m above sea level), 4.5 km east of Lexington, Michigan USA (Sanilac site), provided wood to investigate environment and lake history using several proxies. Macrofossil evidence indicates a forest comprised primarily of conifers equivalent to the modern “rich conifer swamp” community, despite generally low regional abundance of these species in pollen re…
