Abstract
SummaryIn 1983 construction work led to the destruction of part of the island fort of Eilean an Duin and an archaeological investigation was undertaken. Two sections were cut through the stone-built rampart, and one through interior deposits of the site. The rampart may originally have included a timber element which had been burnt. In the interior a clear occupation deposit was recorded. Radiocarbon dates suggest that pre-rampart occupation occurred late in the first millennium BC; the fortification must have been built soon after.
