Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
A concentration of archaeological features at Achnasavil, Carradale, Argyll, which has been recorded since 1985, is being rapidly destroyed by river erosion. Limited excavations were carried out in 1991 in order to date and characterise the nature of the site. Four periods of activity have been identified: cultivation in the Neolithic period; occupation in the Early Bronze Age; domestic settlement in the Late Bronze Age; and Iron Age occupation. A programme of morphological mapping and dating of valley floor terraces in lower Carradale showed that the present day flood plain of the Carra Water was created by the early Neolithic period and the morphology of the valley floor has changed little since that time. | |||||||||
