    John MERCER, Edinburgh THE PALAEOLITHIC AND MESOLITHIC OCCUPATION OF THE ISLE OF JURA, ARGYLL, SCOTLAND The occupation sequence about to be described has been built up from a dozen sites concentrated in N-Jura (Mercer, 1968-79).It is based on local land-sea relationships, site stratification, pollen analysis, drifted-pumice dating and radiocarbon assay.The paper 1 will begin with a discussion of the inter-linked shorelines and climate, then give an impression of the main sites and, finally, describe and compare the stone implement typology. Late Glacial habitat 2017 Jura is a vast island (fig.1) some 80 km (50 m) long.It rises to about 780 m (2500ft) Biblioteca, in the south and 470 m (1500 ft)in the north.

He concluded his Digitalización contribution: " ... it would appear that in Northern Scotland the process of degla­ ciation was not unlike that established for Scandinavia, namely an early and rapid autores. los melt of the ice in western fjords and a longer survival in uplands east of the Atlantic watershed.The significance of such a possibility for plant, animal and human coloni­ sation needs no stressing." documento, Del Coope (summarised in Pennington, 1974), working on beetle remains, noted that © early in Zone I (12,380-10,000 BC) there was a rapid rise in temperature, from less than 10° C as a July average to almost 17° C, though winters may have remained cold.

This article discusses three aspects of a practice-based research project. The first is the author's exploration of these islands and their history through sound in order to try to find elusive sonic traces of the past. The second concerns the issues and problems of finding and recording sound in the Outer Hebrides. The third is the artistic challenge of communicating something about history and memory, related to the Outer Hebrides, through the medium of composed sound using a mixture of monologues, field recordings and interviews collected during a number of trips to the islands as well as material from oral history archives.

  • 'Borgs', Boats and the Beginnings of Islay's Medieval Parish Network?
    ‘Borgs’, Boats and the Beginnings of Islay’s Medieval Parish Network? Alan Macniven Introduction THE Viking1 expansion of c. AD 800 to 1050 is often assigned a formative role in the cultural and political trajectories of Europe and the North Atlantic. The Viking conquest of Anglo-Saxon England, for example, is well known, with its ‘Great Heathen Armies’, metric tonnes of silver ‘Danegeld’, and plethora of settlement names in -býr/-bœr, -þorp, and -þveitr.2 One aspect of this diaspora which remains relatively obscure, however, is its impact on the groups of islands and skerries off Scotland’s west coast which together comprise the Inner Hebrides. This paper will focus on one of these, the isle of Islay, at the south-west extremity of the archipelago, and about half-way between the mainlands of Scotland and Ireland (Figure 1). In so doing, it will question the surprisingly resilient assumption that the Inner Hebridean Viking Age was characterised largely by cultural stability and continuity from the preceding period rather than population displacement, cultural disjuncture or the lasting introduction of new forms of societal organisation. For Norwegian Vikings, it seems likely to have been the lure of Irish riches that kick-started the movement west. The economic opportunities provided by Ireland’s battlefields and marketplaces, in terms of silver, slaves, or simply the chance to build a reputation as a war-leader, offered a gateway to social status of a type fast disappearing in the Scandinavian homelands.3 It is reasonable to assume that most Norse warbands arriving in the Irish Sea 1 The term ‘Viking’ is an emotive one, fraught with pejorative connotations (eg.
