Abstract

Summary Excavations on Rhum have revealed extensive evidence of mesolithic occupation with pits, postholes and a lithic assemblage including over 200 microliths. A range of radiocarbon dates, beginning early in the seventh millennium be, indicates that hunter-gatherer activity may have continued intermittently on the site for around four thousand years.
