The sands and gravels laid down by rivers contain perhaps the most
important archieves of the Ice Age that we possess, in the form of
sediments, fossils and human artefacts. Quarrying opens up these
archives. It enables Ice Age climates, environments, plants and
animals to be reconstructed in remarkable detail. It shines a light
on human evolution. However, quarrying is also destructive. Only if
we know what to look for, and make a positive effort to adequately
record and recover what is found, can the benefits of quarrying for
research into the Ice Age be realised. This handbook, packed with
practical information, and with more than 140 illustrations,
contains full guidance on working in British quarries, what to look
out for and what it can tell us, and how to record sites and finds.
