Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
No record of the discovery of any sepulchral deposit within the cairn seems to have survived and the precise location of the cups is unclear. A circular cup of steatite or soapstone is decorated while a second is made of diorite and has the appearance of a ladle. The third cup was not available for examination. It is argued that the evidence for a Bronze Age date is inconclusive and the cups are more likely to be Iron Age in date. A short cist contained a fragmentary Beaker vessel and some charcoal. No human bone survived. | ||||||||
