Tulloch Wood field system and roundhouse occupation
Excavated fields and roundhouse settlement document organized agricultural landscapes in Moray during the later second millennium BCE.
What is the evidence?
observation
Excavated fields and roundhouse settlement document organized agricultural landscapes in Moray during the later second millennium BCE.observed evidence
Excavated fields and roundhouse settlement document organized agricultural landscapes in Moray during the later second millennium BCE.The sequence demonstrates lowland Scottish land organization on its own chronology and should not be subsumed under southern English phase labels.

Specialist reviewer: not recorded. Review date: not recorded.
Dataset workflow: proposed. This is separate from specialist review.
Confidence describes the stated assessment; it does not certify expert approval. How review works.
Chronology
Dating intervals may describe uncertainty or phases; their width alone does not establish event duration.
1350 BCE–1100 BCE
Precision: radiocarbon and stratigraphic range
Chronology model: regionally resolved positive bce
highPositive BCE integers are used; the larger value is earlier. The range preserves archaeological and calibration uncertainty. The sequence demonstrates lowland Scottish land organization on its own chronology and should not be subsumed under southern English phase labels.
