Abstract

This blog is from a series produced as part of the AHRC funded Boundary Objects Project , a partnership between Historic Environment Scotland , National Museums Scotland and the Universities of Manchester and Reading.

We often think of the graves of the dead lying undisturbed and untouched until they are discovered by modern day archaeologists. But this is not always the case. Investigations of a burial from Golspie, in the Highlands of Scotland, have revealed an intriguing tale of ancient interest in even older graves!
