Creag an Fhithich is a prehistoric cairn located in Argyllshire, Scotland, situated approximately 390 metres south-south-west of the named location. The monument represents a burial structure typical of Bronze Age Scotland, a period when communal and individual funerary practices involved the construction of stone cairns across the landscape. The site's exact dimensions and current physical condition are consistent with other cairns of this period in the region, though like many such monuments, it has been subject to the effects of weathering and land use over millennia. As a designated scheduled monument under Historic Environment Scotland, the cairn retains archaeological significance for understanding prehistoric settlement patterns and mortuary practices in Argyll.
