Abstract

Abstract Star Carr is an important archaeological wetland site. The current site conditions might not be favourable for in situ preservation and warrant further excavations. Recent work has shown that the soil pH can be as low as 2, leading to an unsuitable burial environment. A decision support system is shown in this paper, based on the experience in other in situ projects in Europe. The model is applied to Star Carr leading to the conclusion that in situ preservation is not feasible on the long run. A combined approach, with partial preservation by record and in situ could be the preferred option in the case of Star Carr.

英国约克郡Star Carr的原位保存与监测

星卡尔是一个重要的考古湿地遗址。目前的场地条件可能不利于原地保存，需要进一步挖掘。最近的研究表明，土壤pH值可能低至2，导致不适合埋葬的环境。本文根据欧洲其他就地项目的经验，提出了一个决策支持系统。将该模型应用于Star Carr，得出原地保存从长远来看是不可行的结论。在Star Carr的案例中，通过记录和原位部分保存的综合方法可能是首选的选择。
