An international groups website about prehistoric open-air abstract rock art in the UK. The link “Rock Art in the British Isles”, posted by ‘fitzcoraldo’ (thanks!) on 25th August 2002, refers to the same website but the link is dead. So why not try this fresh one about these mysterious ‘images of a lost message’? We hope to see you soon! And.....room enough for new members in 2003.

From British Archaeology magazine – Alan Lane’s article on Dunadd.

Dunadd is one of the most significant archaeological sites in Scotland, and one of the most important early medieval sites in Britain. It is located in the Kilmartin Valley, Argyll, Scotland. The site is a fortified hilltop, important as a royal centre of the early Scots in the kingdom of Dal Riata. The site was excavated in 1980-81 by Dr Alan Lane of the Department of Archaeology, University of Cardiff.

This site gives access to the excavation archive associated with the published volume.

Excellent local guide to the heart of Perthshire, all sorts of information from accommodation through commentary and local recommendations. Very useful.

This website is dedicated to the megalithic sites of Perthshire. Just now, it focuses on standing stones, stone circles, and ring cairns, but with time it will hopefully expand to include other megalithic sites in Perthshire. Contains an impressive listing of all the standing stones, stone circles and ring cairns in Perthshire (including possible and destroyed sites).
