Extract

Both geologists and archaeologists will be under a debt of BOTH gratitude to Messrs. King and Oakley for their recent paper on the Pleistocene sequence of the lower part of the Thames Valley (I). Not only have they conveniently summarized the results obtained by other field-workers, but they have contributed two postulates of great importance. These are: (a) the probability of a major period of erosion between the deposition of the Lower Loam and the Middle Gravel of the Boyn Hill Terrace succession; and (6) the recognition of a period of erosion between the formation of the Lower Flood Plain Gravel and the Post-Pleistocene alluvial beds.
