Find from Ballacarnane Beg
Archaeology
The findspot of a scatter of 'Bann' type (Heavy-blade) Mesolithic flints, found here by William Cubbon in 1922 after ploughing.
Cubbon's discovery is similar to that observed by Bersu when excavating at Ballacagen in the 1940s, which led the latter to postulate that residual Mesolithic flint had been in turf used to roof the Iron Age structures.
