has abstract	Der Post Track (deutsch „Pfostenweg“) ist ein neolithischer Holzsteg im Tal des River Brue, in den Somerset Levels in Somerset in England. Er stammt aus dem Jahre 3838 v. Chr. und ist damit etwa 30 Jahre älter als der benachbarte Sweet Track. Verschiedene Abschnitte wurden als Scheduled Monument geschützt. Die Somerset Levels sind ein Feucht- und Torfgebiet. Die Bedingungen solcher Gebiete können zur Konservierung von organischen Materialien führen. In den Levels wurden Einbäume, Holzartefakte und -strukturen sowie die gut erhaltenen Eisenzeitdörfer und mit dem Meare Heath Track und der Abbot’s Way gefunden. Der Holzweg wurde aus langen Eschenbrettern mit Linden- und Haselpfosten in Abständen von drei Metern konstruiert. Der Weg begleitet in enger Linie mit den Sweet Track; bevor die Planken datiert wurden, wurde vermutet, dass er als Bauplattform für den Sweet Track diente. Es wird angenommen, dass er zu Orten spiritueller Bedeutung geführt hat. Wahrscheinlich war der Steg als dauerhafte Einrichtung geplant, da die Strecke gepflegt, instand gesetzt und ersetzt wurde, wenn sie verrottet war. Einige Holzplanken wurden im Sweet Track wiederverwendet, wodurch die Datierung komplizierter wurde. (de) The Post Track is an ancient causeway in the valley of the River Brue on the Somerset Levels, England. It dates from around 3838 BCE, making it some 30 years older than the Sweet Track in the same area. Various sections have been scheduled as ancient monuments. The timber trackway was constructed of long ash planks, with lime and hazel posts spaced along three-metre intervals. According to Coles, the heavy planks of the Post Track were seldom pegged. The track follows closely in line with the Sweet Track and, before the planks were dated, it was posited that it served as a construction platform for the Sweet Track. It is speculated that it led to places of spiritual significance. It is likely that the route was intended to be a permanent fixture, with the track being updated, maintained, and eventually replaced as it succumbed to the elements. Some of the wood planks also were reused in the Sweet Track when it was built making the specific dating more complex. (en)
