Many I've been to see have been filled in in living memory to stop cattle falling into them. Quite sad really, when a good fence would have sufficed. The 'ritual' abandonment of Scottish ones is rather odd and interested. Here's the link for the Armit paper . It only really applies to those of "southern pictland" , and when you consider the numbers involved , 200 at least in that area , it is quite selective . Those that have been excavated didn't all exhibit the same "rituals" . http://ads.ahds.ac.uk/catalogu[...]02/pdf/vol_129/129_577_596.pdf Reply | with quote |  9th October 2007ce 09:47 In reply to: Re: Souterrains and dates (FourWinds) |
