Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
This section concerns the use of local resources for the manufacture of objects, tools, and equipment used in daily life at the Biggings, the material needed for the construction of the buildings, and imported goods. It also includes a range of objects and materials brought to the island which would have supplemented the limited local resources. Represented here are a broad range of goods which were imported from as far away as England, Scandinavia and the continent of Europe. Much of this chapter is concerned with exploring the evidence phase by phase to show a changing picture through time of the various activities and contacts experienced on Papa Stour. An overview is followed by specialist reports on a variety of artefacts: steatite vessels, bakestones and other objects; ceramics; other ceramic objects (clay pipe and tile), glass (vessels, beads and window glass), metal (copper alloy, silver, lead, iron, slag), stone (amber, coal and jet, flint, quartz, jasper, pumice, rhyolite); late Norse and medieval woodworking, wooden artefacts and products; textile, yarn and fibre; horn artefacts. | |||||||||
