The site at Rubha Port an t-Seilich, near Port Askaig, is significant primarily for its evidence of early Mesolithic activity, dated to around 8,400 BCE, establishing it as one of the earliest sites of human activity in Scotland. However, the site also exhibits signs of continued occupation and use into the Neolithic period. While specific end dates can be elusive due to the complex stratigraphy and ongoing research, it illustrates a substantial timespan of human presence, adaptation, and development in the region, making it a site of enduring archaeological significance.
