All rights reserved.New excavation and analysis of three crannogs – orman-made islands – in the Outer Hebrides has clearly demonstrated that they hadNeolithic origins, changing our understanding of these enigmatic sites.In addition, Duncan and Fraser determined that thevast amounts of pottery found around Bhorgastail and Langabhat were probablypurposefully deposited directly into the water surrounding the islet, supportingthe idea that these sites were used during the Neolithic. Everyone has heard about Stonehenge, but few are aware of that people in Scotland constructed artificial islands long before England’s stone circles came to existence. Opium poppy and spelt wheat remains imply trade and suggest high status. Previously, it had beenthought that they were built, used, and reused over a period of 2,500 years, stretchingfrom the Iron Age through to the post-medieval period. Prehistoric People Built Little Artificial Islands in Scottish Lochs Researchers nudged the construction date of some these landmasses, known as crannogs, back to the Neolithic period. The resultsconfirmed that all three islets were indeed used within a narrow timeframe duringthe Neolithic: 3640-3360 BC.While the exact reason for their construction is stilla bit of a mystery, overall this project has demonstrated that crannog-buildingmay have been a fairly widespread practice during the Neolithic, at least inthe Outer Hebrides. Anyone who’s spent time around water in Scotland knows how much of a menace they can be.Then, in 2012, Chris Murray, a resident of the Isle ofLewis and a former Royal Navy diver, was diving around one islet and discoveredNeolithic-style pots lying on the loch bed. Previously, it had been thought that they were built, used, and reused over a period of 2,500 years, stretching from the Iron Age through to the post-medieval period. © 2020 Current Publishing. Despite this tantalising discovery, no other Neolithiccrannogs were revealed in the subsequent decades of searching.To confirm whether these watery deposits were linkedwith the crannogs’ construction, Duncan Garrow from the University of Readingand Fraser Sturt from the University of Southampton conducted an extensivesurvey of three of them: those in Loch Arnish, Loch Bhorgastail, and LochLangabhat. Conny Waters - AncientPages.com - Stonehenge in England is world famous and a major tourist attraction.It is widely believed that the stone circle was constructed in the late Neolithic period, about 2500 B.C. A crannog (/ˈkrænəɡ/; Irish language: crannóg [ˈkɾˠan̪ˠoːɡ]; Scottish Gaelic language: crannag) is typically a partially or entirely artificial island, usually built in lakes, rivers and estuarine waters of Scotland and Ireland.
