Using a combination of landscape archaeology and oral testimony this study proposes a new way of understanding the relation ship between evicted Gaelic people and the places they lived and worked. I n doing so\, this paper recentres Gaelic people in their own histories\, a nd provide new ways of looking at key debates on land rights and knowledge s in the GĂ idhealtachd as well as provide a challenge for future\, bottom- up\, interdisciplinary studies.\n \n Bio: Euan Healey is a PhD historian and archaeologist at the University of Glasgow\, Scotland.
