Some cracking little lithics today and plenty of shells as we opened up our first tests and cleaned down to the HUGE intact midden - what will tomorrow bring?!👀

PALaEoScot is in Orkney this week working with Dr Ben Elliott sampling bone from early Mesolithic site, Tarradale. Project PhD student Tayla Sanders is looking at mammalian faunal biodiversity in Scotland at the end of the Ice Age and during the Mesolithic - watch this space!

Kate here. Lately I’ve been doing a little experimental arch/living prehistory - I really got into it and learned a lot. I have been thinking so much about Caroline along the way and her approach to archaeology - doing/showing/sharing is such a wonderful way of learning ❤️
