Speaking of bb's...

There's an interesting article in this quarter's Archaeology Ireland about what may be two 'bog feet'. Found, believe it or not, in an attic while doing up a house late last year.

An adult foot dated to AD 52 - AD 230 and a child's foot at 60 BC - 52 AD (both calibrated, two sigma variation). National Museum is investigating. Bizarre.

Yeah, bizarre.

A few bits of Irish folklore have footless creatures, but not bodiless feet...

Lots of feet in rock art but certainly not on the Forteviot cist cover .

Just out of curiosity - what other body parts are known in Rock Art, and what are their relative proportions. Feet are the most common - what's next - hands ?
