The object of this Web-page is to re-direct the interested visitor to other specific locations in our Website which offer particular areas of educational interest or relevance. Such educational interest may range from the recreational level to the more seriously academic. Certain Web-pages have already been designed with intrinsic educational attributes or contain Links to educational documents for certain users. The use of bibliographical references is employed throughout.
SECTION
1. BONE
CAVES OF PLYMOUTH AND DISTRICT.
Please
note that many of the images in these web-pages are Copyright and should
not be published by anyone without prior written permission of the Society.
Selecting the Link below to the Bone Caves of Plymouth and District Homepage will take you via further Links into a whole range of pages connected with the CATTEDOWN BONE CAVES in Plymouth. For a number of years up until 2004, this U.K. Project has only been intermittently activated on a practical basis but has now been reactivated in what will be one of the largest and most publicised karstological projects the Society has ever undertaken. Up until this time, during the project's lengthy period of relative inactivity, it was decided that the records and archives of the Project, which are of great educational and academic value, should be made available for Public consumption. The Web-pages connected with this Project offer considerable insight into one of the most amazing archaeological and palaeontological cave excavations ever undertaken in the UK. There is now a growing interest in those Victorian cave excavations, with the importance of the anthropological implications of the hominin discoveries only now beginning to be realised.

Selecting the Link below to the Karstography of the Dinaric Karst in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Homepage) will take you into an encyclopaedic and illustrated coverage of caves and karst in this wonderful country. The Homepage for the main subject provides an organized approach via many Links to each of the karst areas under description, currently in the early stages oif construction. All the Webpages connected with this subject will share a similar presentational layout and technical approach and will provide a much needed continuity when accessing this plethora of information. This part of the Society's Website is only now coming on-line from December 2005 and will develop over the forthcoming years.

SECTION 3. HIDDEN OR BURIED KARST FEATURES WITHIN THE LIMESTONES OF THE CITY OF PLYMOUTH.
Selecting
the Link below to the Homepage of the Hidden or Buried Karst
Features within the Limestones of the City of Plymouth, will offer
you access to a series of further Links, each dedicated to a particular
topic, which, as the Homepage Title suggests, deals in some detail with
karst and cave features which are either hidden from view or are buried
at various locations in the narrow belt of the Plymouth Limestones.
Some
of the information in this Section has been drawn from that
held in the Society's Document Archives. In such cases the information
presented has previously had to be subjected to a very careful process
of editing. This has been done in order to overcome the Society's problems
of Web-publishing some of the very interesting documentation we have been
given over many years but which has had a measure of confidentiality attached
to the original conditions of donation. The selected topics have been drawn
from documents which have time-cleared any copyright issues, have no current
active relevance and in which all identity of the original donors has been
removed.
