This fascinating research was led by @uofglasgow.bsky.social @uofgartshums.bsky.social Professor Karen Hardy
Stone Age hunters once reached the windswept tip of Skye. New evidence links their tools to the Ahrensburgian tradition, reshaping where we thought the edge of human Ice Age settlement lay. #Paleolithic #Archaeology #IsleOfSkye #HumanEvolution
