During this session the Section was fortunate in that seven of the lecturers who addressed the Society in Edinburgh were prepared to come to Aberdeen on the following day programmee .Th , therefore, provide dcontinuoua s monthly series from October 197o 0t April 1971.

After considerable discussion it was agreed that no action should be taken in view of the difficulty of restoring the monument to its exact original condition, and also because the restoration would have little archaeological significance. The Section agreed to consider preparing a much-needed guide to the prehistoric antiquities of the Aberdeen region and it is hoped that the definite plans will be prepared during the 1971-2 session.

The continuance of work at Cullycan during the present session provided an opportunity for field work and some members of the Section did in fact participate in this.

Major Higgins, the previous Assistant Secretary, left in July 1970 and his successor did not take up her paid part-time appointment until December, though she was good enough to look after our interests without any charge to the Society in the interim.
