In 2005, a major storm eroded a dune next to the beach at Allasdale, Barra, exposing human remains.
They were first noticed by Barra artist Moira Bard and identified as human by a local doctor, after which a team of archaeologists was called in.
The site was clearly at risk from further erosion, so Historic Scotland funded an urgent rescue dig.
