| Summary: | Optical dating resolution at Broom is unable to accurately date the duration of the middle bed's (containing the artefact assemblage) depositional phase. Dates do indicate a Lower Palaeolithic presence in southwest Britain. It is suggested that the sands and gravels were deposited slightly too early to contain the first evidence of Levallois technique in south-west Britain. |
