Parting Shots Peace And
PARTING SHOTS PEACE AND WAR Ian Parsons1 1811-5209/17/0444-$0.00 DOI: 10.2138/gselements.13.6.444 At the end of July, I had a very special holiday, with some of my family, in Orkney, the cluster of small, wind-swept islands (FIG. 1) that stand bravely between the Atlantic and the North Sea off the extreme north- east corner of Scotland. I had always wanted to visit Orkney because my great-grandmother, Isabella Allan, was born on the tiny island of Stronsay in 1843. By any standards, these islands have an extraordinary human history, stretching from Neolithic times, some 5,000 years ago to the two great wars of the 20th century.

Submerged Landscape of Orkney
Submerged Landscape of Orkney Project Interim Report December 2008 S Dawson & CR Wickham-Jones The Bay of Firth showing the islands of Damsay and Holm of Grimbister (Fiona Stewart) Project Work Fieldwork, Bay of Firth Hydrographic survey work was carried out in the Bay of Firth from Ferry Point on the east side to Backaquoy on the west, using side scan sonar operated by Fiona Stewart of HighResolution Geoservices and the Charles-Ann skippered by Harvey Groat from Stronsay. This work had three aims: • To investigate, and if possible verify, persistent rumours of a submerged structure including vertical slabs in the vicinity of Damsay • To recover data relating to the pre- submergence landscape of the Bay of Firth • To examine the sea bed for cultural heritage, including both wrecks and built structures The Charles-Ann, skippered by Harvey Groat (Fiona Stewart) The results of this survey are presented in appendix 1 and revealed several positive anomalies which have now to be investigated further using a camera, ROV and shallow diver work (appendix 2). Most of these anomalies are likely to relate to recent cultural heritage, but at least one clear reading came from the area of interest indicated by local informants. The existence of a submerged prehistoric structure in the Bay has not yet been ruled out.
