The popularity of our annual Highland Archaeology Festival goes on from strength to strength. We aim to celebrate our shared history, heritage and archaeology and showcase the incredible heritage on our doorsteps as well as the importance of protecting this for future generations. The educational and economic benefits that this can bring to communities cannot be overstated. New research is being carried out daily by both local groups and universities as well as in advance of construction. Highland Council is committed to letting everyone have access to the results of this work, either through our Historic Environment Record (HER) website or through our programme of events for the festival. Our keynote talks this year provide a great illustration of the significance of Highland research to the wider, national picture. These lectures, held at the council chamber in Inverness, will cover the prehistoric period, the early medieval and the industrial archaeology of more recent times.

GENDER REFLECTIONS: A RECONSIDERATION OF PICTISH MIRROR AND COMB SYMBOLS by Traci N. Billings A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Anthropology at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee December 2016 ABSTRACT GENDER REFLECTIONS: A RECONSIDERATION OF PICTISH MIRROR AND COMB SYMBOLS by Traci N. Billings The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2016 Under the Supervision of Professor Bettina Arnold, PhD. The interpretation of prehistoric iconography is complicated by the tendency to project contemporary male/female gender dichotomies into the past. Pictish monumental stone sculpture in Scotland has been studied over the last 100 years. Traditionally, mirror and comb symbols found on some stones produced in Scotland between AD 400 and AD 900 have been interpreted as being associated exclusively with women and/or the female gender. This thesis re-examines this assumption in light of more recent work to offer a new interpretation of Pictish mirror and comb symbols and to suggest a larger context for their possible meaning.

  • Stonehenge in Its Wider Context
    Proceedings of the British Academy, 92, 319334 Stonehenge in its Wider Context GEORGEEOGAN Introduction DUE TO MANY FACTORS such as a growing environmental awareness, a pride in the past, or commercial potential a new philosophy has been emerging in most countries regarding the archaeological inheritance. In view of its usefulness not only for academic study but for more general purposes also, the need to maintain it is a most relevant factor. People are, therefore, becoming more aware of the importance of the archaeological inheritance but also conscious of the fact that the remains cannot reproduce themselves; they are non-renewable and finite. But what value can we put on archaeological monuments almost at the dawn of the twenty-first century and how can we measure value in this current materialistic context? The term ‘resource’ is often applied to archaeology; I see nothing wrong with that term provided that it embraces all the different strands. Stonehenge and other monuments have many values, such as in the realms of general education and curiosity, but for me the primary one is that they constitute an unerring index to the achievements of past societies and provide documents for understanding them. Stonehenge and its environment constitute a composite archaeological landscape. Therefore, dealing with such a site in its wider and comparative context is not an easy matter. This has of course been made easier4ue to the recent magistral English Heritage publication we now know much more about Stonehenge than ever before. In the evalu- ation of any site many aspects have to be considered; these range from straightforward academic and cultural issues, to the role of scientific interpretation and preservation, and also making the monuments available for study by specialists but also for visiting by the general public.

  • Scotland – Edinburgh to Loch Lomond
    Scotland – Edinburgh to Loch Lomond Trip Summary The very best experiences of Scotland, all in one itinerary; you’ll taste the whisky, hike the corbetts and other hills, walk the moorlands, canoe a loch, and ferry out to wild islands. You’ll explore castle ruins, take tea, learn of ancient burial sites, absorb history from the Neolithic times, to those of revolutionary knights, to the Industrial Revolution. From the stunning, wild countryside, to the cobblestone streets of Edinburgh, you’ll immerse yourself in the best Scotland has to offer. Itinerary Day 1: Edinburgh Airport / Pitlochry Your guide will collect you from Edinburgh Airport (or your accommodation if you chose to arrive prior) • Transfer to the picturesque town of Pitlochry in Highland Perthshire • Visit local whisky distillery for a tour and tasting to ease you into highland life • Overnight at Craigatin House (L) Day 2: Pitlochry / Bealach na Searmoin / Killiecrankie From our Pitlochry base, we have a choice of several excellent hikes and your guide will make suggestions based on interests, ability and weather conditions. Possibilities include: Hike summit of a local Corbett (a mountain between 2500 and 3000 feet), taking us across moorland before a steep rocky ascent to the summit (on a clear day you see for miles and are able to identity several mountains in the surrounding areas) • A lower-level option includes a hike over the Bealach na Searmoin (Pass of the Sermon) to the Soldier’s Leap at Killiecrankie • This takes us over a moorland pass before descending to a river

The Scottish Iron Age provides rich data of international quality to link into broader, European-wide research questions, such as that from wetlands and the well-preserved and deeply-stratified settlement sites of the Atlantic zone, from crannog sites and from burnt-down buildings. The nature of domestic architecture, the movement of people and resources, the spread of ideas and the impact of Rome are examples of topics that can be explored using Scottish evidence. The period is therefore important for understanding later prehistoric society, both in Scotland and across Europe. There is a long tradition of research on which to build, stretching back to antiquarian work, which represents a considerable archival resource.

    A Bronze Age Review The international journal of research into the archaeology of the British and European Bronze Age Volume 1, November 2008 SHERIDAN BRONZE AGE REVIEW VOL. 1, NOVEMBER 2008 Creating a research agenda for the Bronze Age in Britain For the first volume of the Bronze Age Review, the editor invited senior scholars to draw on their experience and expertise and write on what they would like to see happening in Bronze Age research in Britain in the future. They were asked to look as broadly as they can and explore issues and areas of study that they feel are currently missing or underdeveloped. The aim is to provide a period of open consultation until 31 January 2009 with suggestions, comments and proposed new chapters to the editor who can be contacted at [email protected]. The authors will subsequently revise their articles for inclusion in a volume published by the British Museum Press. Contents 1-6 A canon for the Bronze Age?
