Abstract:
Evaluation of land at Easter Hatton, Belhelvie, Aberdeenshire revealed a surface scatter of struck flints on a small knoll. Although the evaluation suggested that archaeological features were present, subsequent excavation revealed no reliable evidence for structures likely to have been contemporary with the flints. Detailed excavation of the flint scatter area yielded 446 pieces of flaked stone. The finds are discussed in detail, looking at the raw material, technology and knapping techniques and the composition of the assemblage. It is considered likely that the site has evidence for tool use as well as for manufacture and that the assemblage was very specialised. A Bronze Age date is suggested, although this cannot be accepted without qualification. LD
