And Alan sent you ref to a work where this is mentioned.

Alan, is this correct? Have you cited a work which describes the
global sea level as being 15 meters above the present at some time in
the bronze age?

I haven't seen the work to which Inger refers so I don't know what the
authors say, if anything, about global sea level. Their report is about
"Recent sedimentary deposits and sediment chemistry" of Lake Vättern.
Inger cites it only in connection with the tilting of the lake which led
to the formation of the river Motala Ström ca. 5700 BC.

I don't understand why Inger seems so reluctant to quote a source to
back up her statement. She said it was in a pre-stage of her C-essay. I
have only the finished essay. That's from 1993. Surely some research has
been done since then?


Just for the record...

In their work mentioned up this thread
Lars Håkanson and Thorsten Ahl
do not discuss global sea level other
than when it had an impact on Lake Vättern,
and they certainly do not anywhere in it
mention or claim a bronze age global sea level
15 meter above or belowe anything. They do not
discuss global sea level at all.
