Abstract
Bone material excavated in 1954 at a cave on the island of Sandsøya, Sunnmøre, W. Norway is described. The material consists of c. 70 000 bones, including 124 species of birds, and has been dated to c. 6600 to 3600 years B. P. The find is unique in Norway as regards the variety of bird species identified. The climate and environment prevailing in this period are discussed in relation to the habitat requirements of the various species.
