Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Rescue excavation of a site at Carding Mill Bay near Oban, Argyll, which consisted of two main elements: a shell midden containing Obanian artefacts and, on top of this, a fragmentary second-millennium cist burial. The main significance of the site is the late date of about 5000 bp for the Obanian material, which suggests that these shell midden sites were in use at least up until the beginning of the Neolithic.<p>Includes specialist reports on `The human remains' by Daphne Home Lorimer (29, M 5--51), `The pottery' by Ann Morton (29), `Chipped stone' (31, M 52--8) and `Worked bone and antler' (33, M 59--73) by B Finlayson, `The marine molluscs' (34, M 74--89) by Nancy J Russell, `The animal bones' (34, M 90--7) by Sheila Hamilton-Dyer & Finbar McCormick, `The charred plant remains' (35, M 98--101) by Sheila Bordman, `The charcoal' (35, M 104--7) by B A Crone, and `The land snails' (35--6, M 108) by Stephen Carter. | ||||||||
