As part of this essential remedial work the threatened section was analysed to characterize its archaeological and palaeoenvironmental potential as well provide optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dates. The work determined, through two concordant OSL dating programmes, that the section formed part of an extensive sequence of sedimentation spanning >105 to <48 ka. Furthermore, reanalysis of the archive determined that the sediment sequence examined contained the stratigraphic equivalent of deposits lying below those that have previously produced Neanderthal fossils. Through our work, we can now constrain these younger sediments to being younger than 48 ka. The combined results suggest that this sequence now represents the recovery of an extensive dataset, thought lost to science through complete excavation, which holds the potential to throw light on the disappearance of Neanderthal populations from the Atlantic‐edge outpost on the north‐west frontier of their world.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0267-8179</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1099-1417</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1002/jqs.2669</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Chichester: Blackwell Publishing Ltd</publisher><subject>Channels ; Dating ; Deposition ; Equivalence ; Hominids ; Jersey ; La Cotte de Saint Brelade ; Luminescence ; Neanderthal ; Occupation ; OSL dating ; Sedimentation ; Sediments</subject><ispartof>Journal of quaternary science, 2013-10, Vol.28 (7), p.647-652</ispartof><rights>2013 The Authors. published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd on behalf of Quaternary Research Association</rights><rights>2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002%2Fjqs.2669$$EPDF$$P50$$Gwiley$$Hfree_for_read</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002%2Fjqs.2669$$EHTML$$P50$$Gwiley$$Hfree_for_read</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,1417,27924,27925,45574,45575</link.rule.ids></links><search><creatorcontrib>BATES, MARTIN</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>POPE, MATTHEW</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>SHAW, ANDREW</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>SCOTT, BECCY</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>SCHWENNINGER, JEAN-LUC</creatorcontrib><title>Late Neanderthal occupation in North-West Europe: rediscovery, investigation and dating of a last glacial sediment sequence at the site of La Cotte de Saint Brelade, Jersey</title><title>Journal of quaternary science</title><addtitle>J.
