摘要

本文介绍了利用航空摄影、近端土壤传感、历史研究和对比利时佛兰德斯一处不同寻常的第一次世界大战遗址的挖掘进行的综合研究。航拍照片显示，一排5×6的棚屋异常靠近前线。地球物理研究表明这些结构保存完好。进行了有针对性的挖掘。研究结果深入了解了1917年秋季建造的军营的结构，该军营一直使用到1918年4月德国进攻。对发掘物和历史资料的研究表明，该营地是英国和澳大利亚拓荒者的冬季住所。不同寻常的位置和拓荒者自己占领营地的事实意味着发现的小屋不标准，是为了提供额外的保护而挖的。这项研究表明，军营可以很好地保存在土壤档案中，并有可能揭开前线背后日常生活的故事。

‘Winter camp’ 1917: integrated conflict archaeology on the Messines Ridge 1914-1918 (Belgium)

ABSTRACT Integrated research using aerial photography, proximal soil sensing, historical research and excavations of an unusual First World War site in Flanders (Belgium) is presented. Aerial photography revealed a grid of 5x6 huts unusually close to the front line. Geophysical research indicates good preservation of these structures. A targeted excavation was carried out. The results give insight into the structure of a military camp built in autumn 1917, used until the German offensive of April 1918. Research on excavated objects and historical sources revealed the camp was as the winter quarters for British and Australian pioneers. The unusual location and the fact that the pioneers occupied the camp themselves means that the huts found were not standard and dug in to provide extra protection. This research shows that barracks camps can be well preserved in the soil archives and have the potential to uncover stories from everyday life behind the front.
