Form and function in Shetland prehistoric field systems
Re-deposited cryptotephra layers in Holocene peats linked to anthropogenic activity
Tephra layers can form useful age-equivalent stratigraphic markers for correlating palaeoenvironmental sequences and they provide information about the spatio-temporal nature of past volcanic ash fall events. The use of microscopic ‘cryptotephra’ layers has both increased the stratigraphic resolution of tephra sequences in proximal areas and extended the distal application of tephrochronology to regions of the world situated far from volcanoes. E…
Towers in the North
The mail stone
A lightly incised, animal-headed, Pictish figure is described and analysed in the context of Pictish art and of its find spot. A seventh-century date is proposed
