Yeah, but is she’s representative of the average Clactonian?
She’s not wrong though by any stretch.

I've only just realised, on my to Clacton-on-Sea that the Clactonian should actually be the Clactonien.

A Lower Palaeolithic Clactonian c.400,000 BC flint scraper. It has been partially burnt, most probably as a ritual.

Hey, If I were a Clactonian, I'd pay good money NOT to ever see him again. Wouldn't it be great if all RefUKkers would just p1$$ off to Mara-lago on a one-way ticket 🙏🏼🤞

They achieved a seamless piece of geoarchaeological mapping, rescue excavation & typo-chronological analysis of the results, all published within 3 years in a PPS paper. They helped confirm the #Clacton Channel correlated with the Boyn Hill Terrace & thus temporally constrained the Clactonian. 2/2

It's a big day for Clacton-on-Sea today, and a big moment in my occasional history of the Clactonian.
The first scientific excavations of the #Clacton Channel took place at Jaywick Sands in 1934. Leading the work were Mary Leakey (aged 21) & Kenneth Oakley (aged 23). 1/2

Are you in or around Clacton this Thursday evening? I'll be talking to the Clacton & District Archaeological Society about the importance, under-celebration & possible mis-characterisation of the Clactonian: The only Palaeolithic industry named after a British locality.🦣🏺

Is it likely that #paleolithic #clactonian deposits such as found in the channel fills in Clacton and at Jaywick Sands extend significant distances into the nearshore of the estuary? curious sailor here.

As an archaeologist I detest how the current MP makes me loathe to even use the term Clactonian or teach about it.

I'm not sure immigrantis quite the right framing for populations moving into northern latitudes after the Anglian cold stage, but yesn they are the first culture to show up. If you believe in the Clactonian you could theorise these people moved in from the east, as cultures there lacked handaxes.

Where did Clactonian immigrants come from - across a Hoxnian Doggerland? Maybe north of the Channel River before Rhine etc started to flow North?
