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.

  • The Date and Context of the Glamis, Angus, Carved Pictish Stones Lloyd Laing*
    Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 131 (2001), 223–239 The date and context of the Glamis, Angus, carved Pictish stones Lloyd Laing* ABSTRACT The widely accepted eighth-century dating for the Pictish relief-decorated cross-slabs known as Glamis 2 and Glamis 1 is reviewed, and an alternative ninth-century date advanced for both monuments. It is suggested that the carving on front and back of Glamis 2 was contemporaneous, and that both monuments belong to the Aberlemno School. GLAMIS 2 DESCRIPTION The Glamis 2 stone (Allen & Anderson’s scheme, 1903, pt III, 3–4) stands in front of the manse at Glamis, Angus, and its measurements — 2.76 m by 1.5 m by 0.24 m — make it one of the larger Class II slabs. It is probably a re-used Bronze Age standing stone as there appear to be some cup- marks incised on the base of the cross face. Holes have been drilled in the relatively recent past at the base of the sides, presumably for support struts. Viewed from the front (cross) face the slab is pedimented, the ornament being partly incised, partly in relief (illus 1). The cross is in shallow relief, has double hollow armpits and a ring delimited by incised double lines except in the bottom right hand corner, where the ring is absent. It is decorated with interlace, with a central interlaced roundel on the crossing. The interlace on the cross-arms and immediately above the roundel is zoomorphic. At the top of the pediment is a pair of beast heads, now very weathered, with what may be a human head between them, in low relief.

  • Glamis Castle Archives
    SCOTTISH ARCHIVES 2017 Volume 23 © The Scottish Records Association Around the Archives Glamis Castle Archives Ingrid Thomson The building of Glamis Castle as we know it today began around 1400 and many additions and alterations have been carried out over the years, particularly during the period of Patrick, 3rd Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne, in the late seventeenth century (Plate 1). Its walls have witnessed over 600 years of comings and goings, from illustrious royals, prime ministers, artists and writers, to family, friends, associates, tradesmen, clergy, governesses, servants and tenants. It is therefore not surprising that Glamis Castle has a rich and diverse archive dating back to the twelfth century, documenting the lives of not just the Strathmore family, but also a wide spectrum of society. The records at Glamis consist of several collections, comprising the Survey Lists of the National Register of Archives (Scotland) – NRA(S) 885 and 3526 – referring to both the Strathmores’ Scottish and English estates; Castle Opening (CO) Department records from when the castle first opened to the public in 1950; family correspondence and other records transferred from the Queen Mother’s residence at Clarence House, including some of the 14th Earl’s business papers, c.1876–1940 (closed to the public); personal records of the 16th, 17th and 18th Earls (closed for 100 years); the printed music collection of Mary Eleanor Bowes, some of which she inherited from her mother, mainly from the 1760s to 1800; and even early-eighteenth-century male clothing, presumably worn by the Earls of Strathmore, c.1710–60. The archives are currently under-utilised and would benefit from being opened to a wider audience so that more people can share in the rich history and heritage of Glamis.
