| Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring undertaken close to Badger Way Stoop cairnfield (NZ 06396 07729) identified a concentration of worked lithics within a thin soil layer. Due to the likely extent of this soil remnant and its association with the scheduled cairnfield site to the immediate south, 11 square test-pits were hand-excavated through the layer, along the development route. A total of 23 worked lithics were recovered from these pits, four of which could be assigned to the Mesolithic or Early Neolithic periods, suggesting that the promontory to the south of the track may have been a focus of early activity. |
