dc.descriptionAcknowledgements Site supervision, palaeo-environmental research and OSL dating has been funded by the Bailies of Bennachie, radiocarbon dating organised by Bruce Mann of Aberdeenshire Council Archaeological Services and all other work has been carried out by volunteers, without whom the project could not have existed. The landowners, Macdonald Hotels, the Foresight Group and RTS Forestry have been most gracious in permitting these investigations to happen and, with the help of their hotel and estate managers, have provided much greatly appreciated support for the project. Grateful thanks to Jeff Oliver, Colin Miller, Andrew Wainwright and Jo Vergunst for their insightful comments and suggestions that have greatly helped this paper. All errors are down to the authors. Finally, many thanks to the three specialists – Jackaline, Ed, and Tim – for all their help and sound advice. Students from Alford Academy are especially thanked for their assistance with aspects of Ed’s laboratory work linked to the pollen analysis.en
