I know I'm biased, but to my mind, the results of the #FlagFen Auger Survey are equivalent to the mapping of #Doggerland - once elusive submerged landscapes made palpable!

The model created from the Flag Fen auger survey shows that the basin around the post-alignment has a gentle gradient across its western half, beside a deeper 250-300m wide “valley” across the eastern half. This eastern deeper, wetter zone corresponds to the location of the Flag Fen platform.

The preserved stumps of oak trees survive below the Flag Fen post-alignment. Part of a submerged forest, these trees belong to a Early Bronze Age terrestrial landscape that pre-dates the rising groundwater table that turned these low-lying contours into a fen embayment. #BogOaks #Fenland #FlagFen 🏺

Oh this looks glorious. A little pricey, but not university textbook pricey and the production justifies the cost. Plus, unexpected Lego Must Farm. #mustfarm #flagfen #bronzeage #piledwelling

Absolutely stellar #archeaology at #FlagFen - a remarkable 3,500 year old Bronze Age site. I’d wanted to go here for years and it didn’t disappoint even on a chilly February afternoon.
