Rubha an Dùnain

Rubha an Dùnain or Rubh' an Dùnain is an uninhabited peninsula to the south of the Cuillin hills on the island of Skye in Scotland. This headland rises to over above sea level. Loch na h-Airde is a body of freshwater that is situated to the east of the peninsula close to the sea shore. To its north is Camas a' Mhùrain (bay of the marram grass).〔
There is a variety of archaeological sites dating from the Neolithic onwards. The name of the peninsula is Gaelic—the meaning of ''Rubha an Dùn'' is evidently "headland of the fort" but the last syllable is less clear. In a different context, Mac an Tàilleir suggests ''Dùnain'' may mean either "bird's hill" (Dùn Eòin) or "John's fort" (Dùn Eòin/Dùn Iain).
==Prehistoric remains==
There is a variety of archaeological sites on the peninsula. To the north are the remains of prehistoric settlements dating from the Neolithic, including a chambered cairn from the 2nd or 3rd millennium BC and a passage grave. A dun to the south of the loch is likely to be of Iron Age provenance.〔("Get-a-map" ). Ordnance Survey. Retrieved 7 May 2011.〕〔〔("Skye, Rubh' An Dunain, 'Viking Canal' " ). Canmore.
