| Abstract: |
[NC 989194]. The Kilphedir settlement is typical of a common Sutherland class of hut-circles associated with clearance cairns and areas of arable. Five stone and timber round-houses were occupied c 500 BC on radiocarbon and pollen evidence, immediately prior to the local formation of blanket peat. The site was re-occupied perhaps in later 2nd century BC, when one of the old hut-circles was rebuilt on a more massive scale. Detailed soil and peat profiles are appended. A R |
