CourCist (bronze Age), Flake (flint)(bronze Age), Food Vessel Urn (bronze Age) · 462 yd

Explorer Tom Cour in Argyll and Bute has Bronze Age cists, flint flakes, and even a food vessel urn! It's like a prehistoric kitchen set. The location is accurate to the metre. Check if anyone left any snacks behind, though don't expect leftovers.
