Hi, Surely it depends on how categorisation is undertaken and whether dates are recorded explicitly i.e. if a date is known and used to extrapolate the period without then also recording the date then problems will occur if the timelines differ or change e.g. A coin of date 500 is denoted as Roman by X but by Y would be Anglo-Saxon. My view was always to record dates. cheers Simon >>> Gregory Chuter <[log in to unmask]> 05/08/2008 09:04 >>> Hi Phil The RCHME time line does not match the HBSMR time line we currently use. Will there be an amendment to this at some stage in line with the EH review of periods / timelines?. Probably opening a whole can of worms here, but the RCHME time line also differs from the one defined by our currently running South East Research Framework. These differences between data sets / projects will surely cause problems for research and data collection in the future.

We (EH) are currently revisiting the whole periods/timelines thing and will be soon updating the dates attached to the periods to remove overlaps and reflect current thinking, particularly with regards to the earlier periods. The file includes our unique ids/parent_uids and the Chronological order field to allow you to build a mini-hierarchy but you can ignore these. I know we're not supposed to attach files but Bruce told me to do it so any complaints please hassle him!

We are refining our HER to get it ready to go on the web next year and we are trying to assign dates to the various periods to make it easier for the public to search. However, what we have currently seems to vary greatly from other lists I've seen. Can anyone tell me if there is a definitive list out there somewhere and if so where. Alternatively, would people be prepared to share their lists with us so we can try and create a more comprehensive one?
