Has anyone on the list who uses the Exegesis SMR database software had the same problem that I have had in searching by one period (prehistoric only) and getting overlapping periods? e.g. searching for Bronze Age you seem to get Neolithic and Iron Age period sites too. This appears to be a deliberate overlap in the start and end dates, which in theory reflects the lack of archaeological certainty, but in practise makes it impossible to pull out JUST the records coded as Bronze Age (whether they really are or not!). I would be interested if anyone has any comments or thoughts on this.
