Being involved in conception and execution of two major pre-disturbance
projects that involved dredging I found quite useful the following
publications:
ADAMS, J. ; HOLK, A. ; MAARLEVELD, T. (1990) - Dredgers and Archaeology,
Shipfinds from the Slufter. Alphen aan den Rijn: Ministerie Van Welzijn,
Volksgezondheid en Cultuur, Archeologie onder Water.
MAARLEVELD, Thijs (1988) Marine archaeology and the planning of large-scale
sand-extraction: an example from the Netherlands. In Archaeology and
society. ICHAM report nš 1. Stockholm: ICOMOS/ICAHM, pp. 247-255
