Abstract:
Reports the discovery of a Mesolithic shell midden during salvage excavations. Organic preservation was good, leading to the preservation of abundant faunal bone (including some human fragments). As well as a collection of bone and antler tools that included `Obanian' types, a classic lithic assemblage was recovered. A radiocarbon date has suggested a range of 6551--6188~BC.
