Abstract: Iona’s long settlement history has resulted in uneven and complex archaeological remains, depleted by generations of conservation works on the main ecclesiastical sites. Archaeological investigations at these sites have not always been successful and have yet to produce a coherent narrative of early ecclesiastical settlement on the island. No summary of this work has explicitly stated the full extent and piecemeal nature of successive excavations, or the significance of this for the long term curation of Iona as an early church site of international importance. This is a problem which may offer lessons for the care of other medieval church sites with extensive standing and buried remains.
