Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
A series of shell middens and miscellaneous habitation sites located in a dune system in west Co. Galway, have been exposed and are slowly disappearing through wind, wave and surface erosion. In 1992 a project was initiated to record, sample and date some of these sites; the radiocarbon results demonstrated that activity in the area spanned the Early Bronze Age through to the Iron Age and into the early and post medieval periods. The discovery of a bronze penannular brooch of 9th/10th century at early medieval site would suggest that the settlements are not the remains of transient, impoverished people of the lower classes of society. The paper includes an appendix of specialist reports on the penannular brooch, mammal bone assemblage (including stable isotope studies), fish bone assemblage, marine molluscs and plant remains.
