QUB metadata references

Here is the place to list text which clarify the geographical origin for sets of QUB-files.

England

• An English Tree-Ring Chronology, A.D. 404-1216 (JENNIFER HILLAM) http://ads.ahds.ac.uk/catalogue/adsdata/arch-769-1/ahds/dissemination/pdf/vol25/25_031_044.pdf
• An English chronology 434 BC - AD 315 mentioned by English Heritage: Dendrochronology: Guidelines on producing and interpreting dendrochronological dates (2004) (but by almost no others).

Alchester

• "There is a key dendrochronological date from a gatepost timber at Alchester which demonstrates that this structure was probably built in AD 44 (Sauer 2001, 72) and thus provides not only the earliest secure independent dating for a military feature anywhere in Roman Britain but also a key starting point for understanding the Roman conquest of the region and the early development of the complex sequence at Alchester itself." http://www.buckscc.gov.uk/assets/content/bcc/docs/archaeology/A_ST_Oxford_5_solent_thames_roman_oxon_jan_08.pdf p.4

"BELIM"

The "BELIM" masterchronology AD 1001-1970 is described (containing also data for the Master Chronology) in Michael G. L. Baillie: The Belfast Oak Chronology to AD 1001, Tree-Ring Bulletin, vol. 37, 1977 (Geocoord data approximately according to map in the article). It is also available among the East Anglia Incident chronology files. The younger part of this chronology, however, was described in Baillie: A Recently Developed Irish Tree-ring Chronology, Tree-Ring Bulletin, vol. 33, 1973. pp. 15-28.
