New Neolithic crannogs confirmed!
For 4 weeks in July 2022 we investigated 34 islands in 28 lochs on Uist using UAV and geophysical surveys along with diver/snorkel inspection.
Following this work and an analysis of the results, we are pleased to announce the discovery of three new Neolithic islands in the Outer Hebrides!
To find out more about the preparation, process and results of the 2022 field surveys, check out our interim reports.
Throughout July 2022 we will be on Uist investigating around 20 sites hoping to identify more Neolithic crannogs!
We will be giving a talk on Tuesday 12 July at UHI Lionacleit. If you’re in Uist and fancy hearing about our fieldwork this summer, feel free to come along!
We will also be conducting a site visit of one of our more interesting finds. Stay tuned for date/location.
This summer, we’re shining a spotlight on Scottish archaeology with the Scotland Digs 2022 campaign which brings together events and updates from across the country for everyone to enjoy.
