This was primarily due to its strategic importance as the northern gateway into the Hebrides to the west, and Caithness and Sutherland to the north. The power derived from the earldom’s strategic situation was enhanced by the status of its earls. From 1215 to 1372 the earldom was ruled by an uninterrupted MacTaggart comital dynasty which was able to capitalise on this longevity to establish itself as an indispensable authority in Scotland north of the Forth.

    Recovery of Human Remains at St Taran's and St Keith's Chapel, Taransay, Western Isles

    Recovery of human remains at St Taran’s and St Keith’s Chapel, Taransay, Western Isles Martin Cook and Mike Roy With contributions by Dawn McLaren, Ann MacSween and Kath McSweeney Overview A PROGRAMME of archaeological works was undertaken on Taransay, Harris, Western Isles (Figure 1), involving the removal of loose artefacts and a survey of the surrounding area. Artefacts including human bone were recovered from areas of erosion in the vicinity of cemeteries traditionally associated with St Taran’s and St Keith’s Chapels.1 Following particularly bad storms in January 2005, human remains were found to be eroding from a standing section below a cemetery traditionally associated with St Taran’s Chapel, Taransay, Harris, Western Isles (NGR: NG 0310 9914; Figure 1). Dr Mary MacLeod of the Western Isles Council collected loose material, and further identified five sites of interest which were under threat of coastal erosion.2 Although bones had previously been recorded in the area, the volume of eroded material led Dr MacLeod to contact Historic Scotland, and request assistance. AOC Archaeology Group was commissioned under the terms of the Historic Scotland Human Remains Call-Off Contract to undertake the 1 AOC Archaeology Group is most grateful to the landowner, Mr Angus MacKay for permission to excavate, for the use of accommodation and for ferrying facilities. Alan Hunter-Blair worked through horrendous conditions to complete the survey and excavation. John Gooder managed the project fieldwork while Ciara Clarke managed post-excavation works. John Barber provided helpful comments to the draft text. Advice was kindly provided by Dr Mary MacLeod of the Western Isles Council and Mr Patrick Ashmore, Head of Archaeology, Historic Scotland.

According to the Earl of Southesk, whose notice was written some forty years ago, it is "said to have formed part of a circle recently removed." I have not been .able to verify this. There was, it seems, a circle of stones not far off, whence the local name, Langstanes, of a former holdin absorbew no g n Netheri d " AuquhollieI t bu , | could find 110 proof that this stone belonged to that %.,,, circle, and all experience is against it, since alphabetic ^ writing has never been found on such circles.

ETC I PREFACE. In presenting this Genealogy to the descendants of the Kincardineshire Branch of the Nicol family, I have to thank many members for their kind help in correcting the printed draft lately circulated. My thanks are specially due to the Rev. James Smith, B.D., of St. George's-in-the-West Parish, Aberdeen, for his diligent searchings of old Registers in Edinburgh, etc., and for his most kind and ungrudging help. With regard to the more ancient history I have been assisted by Skene's book, " The Highlanders of Scotland," published in 1837. This publication was awarded the prize offered by the Highland Society of London for the best History of the Highland Clans. Much of Skene's information was derived from MSS. the property of the Faculty of Advocates, Edinburgh, and in particular the MS. believed to have been written in 1450, and which has the date upon it— 1467. As errors may have crept in, I should be greatly obliged by their being pointed out to me. Should any new matters of interest in connection with the family be discovered, it is probable that a further addition of this Genealogy will be printed.

    Souterrains in Sutherland

    SOUTERRAINS IN SUTHERLAND Alex. Morrison BACKGROUND The terminology of these sites has varied considerably over the past 150 years, with labels such as Pier's house, eirde house, earth-house (RCAHMS Sutherland Inventory 1911 ), we em and leabidh jholaich being used at different times, and mostly suggesting a dwelling or refuge function. Some of this has been discussed by Broth well (1977. 179), who avoided the word souterrain as: ... a more cautious term - covering as it does an underground passage, tunnel, subway structure - but does not imply any expanded or terminal 'living' or 'storage' area which some seem to show, and it is difficult to determine how much of some structures was originally underground. Most recent writers on the subject appear to be well aware of the limitations involved in the use of the word 'sou terrain', and of the implications for living, storage and even possible 'ritual' functions of the surviving remains. Despite the lack of evidence, in some cases, as to whether the structures were completely or partially underground, the word 'souterrain' will be retained here, and will be used to refer to structures of 'typical' souterrain shape- to passages, more or less curved; and to underground chambers which might not be passages but which seem, in some examples, to have good evidence of being attached to surface structures. The number of structures under this heading [Fig. I 0.1] is not large for the size of the area involved, nor is the information available consistent in quantity and quality. Not all structures recorded in the 1911 Royal Commission Inventory and later sources are undoubted souterrains, and some of the sites listed here have a question mark against them as an indicator of incomplete information.
