Abstract

This article outlines the results of two related but distinct aspects of fieldwork: a geophysical survey of the Rhynie cropmark complex and a small targeted excavation conducted in 2005–6, which are both part of the Rhynie Environs Archaeological Project (REAP). The geophysical surveys included a substantial gradiometer and a smaller resistivity survey that aimed to characterise and explore the extent and survival of archaeology around the Craw Stane Pictish symbol stone (NJ42NE 35) and two other symbol stone findspots. The results showed several discrete anomalies; one of these was targeted by a small-scale excavation and proved to be a burnt Middle Bronze Age timber structure. This article describes the geophysical survey results and the excavation of the MBA structure and sets both within their landscape context.

象征石碑前的土地
本文概述了实地考察的两个相关但不同的方面的结果:Rhynie cropmark复合体的地球物理调查和2005 - 2006年进行的小型目标挖掘,这两个都是Rhynie环境考古项目(REAP)的一部分。地球物理调查包括一个重要的梯度仪和一个较小的电阻率调查,旨在描述和探索克拉夫斯坦皮克特符号石(NJ42NE 35)和其他两个符号石发现点周围考古的范围和生存。结果显示了几个离散的异常;其中一个是小规模挖掘的目标,被证明是一个烧毁的中期青铜时代木结构。本文描述了地球物理调查结果和MBA结构的挖掘,并将两者置于其景观背景下。
