Description
We report the results of dendrochronological investigation of three timbers from the Yarmouth Roads shipwreck (Solent strait, UK), which was researched within the scope of the ForSEAdiscovery project. We also provide the tree-ring dataset (ring widths) obtained from those samples (in Heidelberg format), plus an additional dataset containing 14 more samples which were researched in 2016 but not reported. All these data will be presented in the book chapter:
Domínguez Delmás, M., Rich, S., Nayling, N., forthcoming. Dendroarchaeology of shipwrecks in the Iberian Peninsula: 10 years of research and advances, Chapter 14 in A. Crespo Solana, F. Castro, & N. Nayling (Eds.), Heritage under the Sea: Maritime History and Archaeology of the Global Iberian World (16th-18th centuries) Springer Publishers.
An excel file with the metadata of all the samples is also included. Note: the metadata contained in this excel file is to be taken correct when disparities appear with the metadata included in the header of the samples on the FH files.
Note: the units of the MRW and standard deviation reported on Table 1 are mm, instead of cm as indicated on the caption.
