Excavations at the early and later medieval site of Ballachly, Dunbeath, Caithness, 2007-10
Excavation and field survey at Ballachly, Dunbeath, Caithness in 2007-10 produced evidence which suggests the existence of a possible early medieval and later Norse site centred around the hillock known as Chapel Hill, on top of which is located an, as of yet, indeterminate unicameral stone building. The site, already known for its Early Christian inscribed stones, lay within a substantial stone-walled enclosure of late medieval to early post-med…
Britons in Anglo-Saxon England
The Roman Origins of Celtic Christian Art
The repertoire of ornamental devices employed in Celtic Christian art of the fifth to seventh centuries AD is reviewed, and it is argued that these motifs were in use in Roman Britain into the fourth century. This tradition survived in ornamental metalwork into the fifth century in a number of areas within Britannia, particularly in the Bristol Channel region and the South-West, during the period of the Anglo-Saxon settlements, and gave rise to t…
The Art of the Picts
The date and context of the Glamis, Angus, carved Pictish stones
The widely accepted eighth-century dating for the Pictish relief-decorated cross-slabs known as Glamis 2 and Glamis 1 is reviewed, and an alternative ninth-century date advanced for both monuments. It is suggested that the carving on front and back of Glamis 2 was contemporaneous, and that both monuments belong to the Aberlemno School
How late were Pictish symbols employed
It is suggested that certain features enable particular relief-decorated stones displaying Pictish symbols to be dated within chronological horizons, and that this indicates that Pictish symbols continued to be employed in Scotland into the 10th century or beyond, survival perhaps lasting longer in the north
The Chronology and Context of Pictish Relief Sculpture
Several alternative schemes for the dating if Pictish relief sculpture have been advanced during the last century. Representations if artifacts which can be dated archaeologically, decorative devices associated with the Viking Period and details if animal ornament are used to provide new date-ranges for some stones usually dated earlier. The early dating often advanced for some low-relief sculptures is accordingly questioned, and a tentative sche…
Excavations at Caerlaverock Castle, 1955–66
The acceptance of Caerlaverock castle into guardianship was followed by consolidation of the masonry and the clearance of the silted moat. In parallel with these operations, a series of excavations was carried out to investigate the nature of the outer defences and any surviving evidence for earlier bridges. Four different phases of timber bridges had crossed the moat to the gatehouse; the first three were dated by dendrochronology to 1277, 1371 …
The Early Christian and later medieval ecclesiastical site at St Blane's Kingarth, Bute
Discusses the 1896 and 1997 archaeological investigations of the monastery and associated structures and reviews the literature and documentation related to the foundation dating back to the sixth century. Comparisons are drawn with Whithorn, Galloway, in terms of the layout of the monastic complex . A D S Macdonald writes on `Early Kingarth' (553--5)
Scottish and Irish metalwork and the 'conspiratio barbarica
It is suggested that 'Donside terrets' were still current as late as the 4th century AD and that stylistic links between Scottish and Irish metalwork may indicate alliance between Picts and Scots in the late Roman period. Au (adp)
Archaeological notes on some Scottish early Christian sculptures
Evidence is found of strong debt to RB and AS England in Pictish culture as represented by objects shown on Pictish stones (chariot, armour, weapons, horsemen, musical instruments, etc)
The date and origin of the Pictish symbols
Argues that certain symbols originated in late 4th/early 5th century, and that some stem from Roman influence. Special reference to Norrie's Law (Fife) hoard: not late 7th but 5th century
The romanization of Ireland in the fifth century
The Mote of Mark and the origins of Celtic interlace

Some Medieval and Post Medieval Pottery From S. W. Scotland
Cooking-Pots and the Origins of the Scottish Medieval Pottery Industry
The ‘Northern British Cooking-Pot’ stems from Saxo-Norman antecedents, and is found in two basic light-coloured fabrics, the ‘Gritty Northern’ and the ‘Staxton Ware Type’. From Yorkshire the type spread in the early thirteenth century west over the Pennines to Carlisle and thence to south-west Scotland. Present evidence suggests that while ‘Gritty Northern’ ware traditions may have spread to eastern Scotland by an overland route, there is reason …
Notes on Scottish medieval pottery
Sherds from 13 sites bring the total of known provenances in Scotland of Scarborough ware to 19, mostly in eastern coastal areas. Sherds of face-mask jugs have been found on 20 sites and kilns for their manufacture are known at Stenhouse near Falkirk and at Colstoun in E Lothian. Scottish face-mask jugs are divided into three types dating from the late 13th-16th centuries. Evidence is accumulating for a direct east coast pottery trade between Sco…
