| Abstract: | The excavation and publication of the Bronze Age banks discovered at the Black Crofts, North Connel, in the years around 1970 may be considered a landmark in prehistoric archaeology in Scotland and, in particular, the study of archaeology under blanket peat. Investigations at the site continued up to 1978 but the results of this later work were never fully published. Recent archaeological investigations, triggered by housing developments in the Black Crofts, have led to renewed interest in the site and the earlier archaeological studies. This paper provides a summary of all the work undertaken at this site and undertakes a re-assessment of the published interpretations of the bank system in the light of more recent research. Includes Appendix: catalogue of archaeological investigations in the Black Crofts, North Connel. | ||
