This project narrates the origins and development of a mixed-media art installation which was designed to allow for an exploration of diverse and eclectic representations of conflict as selected by the artist.

Two other finds, a Beaker and a Food Vessel, have been rescued from the same area and clearly represent further burial deposits in a small cemetery of early second millennium bc date.A list of radiocarbon dates associated with Food Vessel burials from east-central Scotland by Alison Sherid…

Two cists from Boatbridge Quarry, Thankerton, Lanarkshire
Excavations at Ardnave, Islay
This paper describes the excavation of a series of structures discovered in the sand-dunes at Ardnave, Islay, between 1977 and 1980. The earliest structure was a house, probably of several periods, associated with food-vessel pottery. Subsequently the house was covered by blown sand, but later occupation was attested by midden material, also with food vessels, overlying the earlier building. There were also two hearths of late Iron Age date, one …
