Аннотация:Two burials of Iron Age date were recorded at Galson during rescue excavations in 1993 and 1996, as a result of erosion of the steep, north-facing sand-dune face, which rises over 6 m between the shingle beach and a field wall.This erosion face is the site of a well-known cemetery and settlement extending in date at least from the Iron Age to the Norse period.The burials are placed in the context of past discoveries at Galson and a brief consideration of the evidence for long cist cemeteries in the Western Isles is presented.
