The evidence left at Skara Brae indicates that animal skins would have been the primary clothing, although they could have decorated it with shells or feathers, as we surmise that they hunted red deer and boar for skins, but they also collected limpet shells (probably for use as bait), and likely collected the eggs of seabirds.

Sealskins and even the skin of the occasional beached whale may have sustained them as well.
