There is a mould for a knobbed spear-butt from Little Dunagoil, Bute, a fort usually dated
to the first century BC-AD (Macgregor 1976, 85). But it seems unlikely on present evidence that
knobbed spear-butts are as early as this, and there is also 'Dark-Age' occupation at Little
Dunagoil, indicated by post-Roman pottery (Marshall 1964).
