ABSTRACT

In this second part, we analyse from new radiocarbon (14C) dating of landforms, palaeo-environmental analyses of sediment stratigraphies and documentary evidence for land use, the ‘high road’ to Stirling, across high ground west of the coastal plain, in the early 14th century. We identify a number of significant mis-perceptions of the landscape in the literature, and again stress the need for linked multi-proxy data sources. We re-think the obstacles imagined by some workers to have faced the advancing English to Stirling and show that few were obstacles, particularly in comparison to a path across the coastal plain. We show that the distribution of peat in basins and deep river valleys will have presented problems, however, and this may have been influential.

1314 年班诺克本战役中斯特灵周围的地形:结合科学和文献的方法进行重建。二、“高路”

摘要

在这第二部分中,我们从新的放射性碳 ( 14 C) 地形测年、沉积物地层的古环境分析和土地利用的文献证据、通往斯特灵的“高速公路”、横跨沿海平原以西的高地、 14世纪初。我们在文献中发现了一些对景观的重大误解,并再次强调需要链接的多代理数据源。我们重新考虑了一些工人想象的障碍,他们在面对进步的英语到斯特灵时遇到了障碍,并表明几乎没有障碍,特别是与穿过沿海平原的道路相比。然而,我们表明,泥炭在盆地和深河谷的分布会出现问题,这可能会产生影响。
