Walk through Yung Shue Wan on Lamma Island and below your feet could be pottery and other items dating back 6,000 years. Archaeologists Mick Atha and Kennis Yip researched the back beach of Sha Po village on Lamma. Their research tells the story of people at different times who would come in dugout boats to fish or forage, to make jewellery, or bream their boats. They are the co-authors of the book of their research, Piecing Together Sha Po: Archaeological Investigations and Landscape Reconstruction. Mick Atha told Annemarie about some of their finds and the work of Father Daniel Finn in the 1930s.
