Cladh Hallan: life and death on the island of South Uist
Manage episode 312074816 series 2904169
Located in the Outer Hebrides, the prehistoric settlement of Cladh Hallan is best known for the Bronze Age mummies found buried beneath its roundhouses. As well as these insights into how the dead were treated, though, the dwellings have also yielded illuminating insights into the world of the living.
On this episode of the PastCast, Mike Parker Pearson discusses his co-authored article in the latest issue of Current Archaeology magazine (also available on The Past website), which takes an in-depth look at the most recent research into this remarkable settlement. He spoke with Current Archaeology editor Carly Hilts and regular PastCast presenter Calum Henderson.
Calum also spoke with Carly about what readers can look forward to in the latest issue of Current Archaeology, and the magazine’s upcoming conference at the end of February 2022.
