Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The 7th millennium BC site is the earliest so far found in Scotland. Pits and hollows contained a range of lithic tools and materials derived from their use, and stakeholes and slots could have provided windbreaks or more substantial structures. The lithic materials were carefully selected from various local sources and worked using adaptive technology (such as bipolar reduction) to deal with intractable materials, often bloodstone. Spatial analysis suggested that separate areas of the site were differentiated in some way, but the pattern was confused by long occupation. Year-round rather than seasonal occupation may have occurred, but there was a wide network of contacts within the NW Scottish coast and islands. Full analysis of the lithic material is presented. The assemblage need not relate to Jacobi's scheme for England; Rhum may be just one facet of a heterogeneous Meso pattern. There were also scanty remains of Neo activity, late 2nd or early 3rd millennium BC. | ||||||
