The group stayed in Inveraray and included a number of NOSAS members who enjoyed the usual well researched sites and excellent evening talks. The first site was a Neolithic chambered cairn in Crarae Gardens. This cairn was excavated in the 1950s when it was discovered to contain inhumations and cremation burials. The chamber is divided into three sections by two septal slabs with the largest section at the rear. The next site was Arichonan township which overlooks Caol Scotnish, an inlet of Loch Sween, and which was cleared in 1848 though there were still some households listed in the 1851 census. Chambered cairn Marion Ruscoe Later maps indicate some roofed buildings as late as 1898.

Dear MacLeod, It is fitting that I should dedicate this book to you. You have been interested in its making and in its publica- tion, and how fiattering that is to an author s vanity / And what chief is there who is so beloved of his clansmen all over the world as you, or whose fiame is such a household word in dear old Skye as is yours ? A book about Skye should recognise these things, and so I inscribe your name on this page. Your Sincere Friend, THE A UTHOR. 8G54S7 EXILED FROM SKYE. The sun shines on the ocean, And the heavens are bhie and high, But the clouds hang- grey and lowering O'er the misty Isle of Skye. I hear the blue-bird singing, And the starling's mellow cry, But t4eve the peewit's screaming In the distant Isle of Skye.

  • Letter from Scotland Alex Mcleod of South Australia, 2010
    A Letter from Scotland Alex McLeod of South Australia, 2010 EDITOR’S EXCURSION A Letter from Scotland.. Alex McLeod In 2010 we had 8 representatives from SA to the 4 yearly Clan MacLeod Societies’ Parliament. Not so much of a Parliament; but a Gathering with some Clan business. I was thrilled by the strong attendance of Merawyn, Alexa, Stefan & Doreen, Bronwyn and Bill & Jenny Hunt who were warmly greeted. The Raasay MacLeods especially acknowledged the Hunts for preserving the Raasay MacLeod history at their farming property “Nalang”, near Bordertown. Our pre Parliament gathering in Scotland is usually about regional culture and history, and this time it was held in the parish of Assynt, by Inchnadamph, in the northwest highlands and coast. That required some traveling, which we also continued later. So here is a spray of traveler’s impressions. Glasgow Yin and Yang. Clydebank shipyards ‘lang gang’ Architecture old and new. What rain can’t clean, steam may do. Edinburgh, Fringe - both witty and rank. Every building LOOKS like a bank; but ATM’s are hard to find. Military Tattoo was slick, refined. Stirling Castle renovation. Brooch of Scotland. History of a nation. The Wallace monument, -stand and linger. Still Wallace gives England the finger. Culloden battlefield Visitor Centre, Highland Charge & Helter Skelter. Aberdeen; granite grey upon grey; -couldn’t find it on a cloudy day. What were they thinking? Missed Perth, I was blinking. Bright Dundee on the Tay, Scot’s ship Discovery, St. Andrews, golfing town of ‘eagles, birdies and pars’, ‘Triple bogey’ traffic jams for travelers in cars.

  • Excavations at Dun Ardtreck, Skye, in 1964 and 1965
    Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 130 (2000), 301–411 Excavations at Dun Ardtreck, Skye, in 1964 and 1965 Euan W MacKie* with contributions by E Campbell, J Henderson, A Newman, B Noddle, E Photos-Jones, A Robertson&PWebster ABSTRACT Dun Ardtreck stands on the west coast of Skye, on a rock knoll with a sheer cliff. It is a small D- shaped drystone strong-hold surrounded by an outer wall and could be one of a small group which had the high broch hollow wall but were not circular towers, termed semibrochs by the writer. The circumstantial evidence for the wall having originally been high is strong, although it is badly ruined now; however, the possibility that the wall was never more than of modest height cannot be completely ruled out. Construction was probably in the first or second centuries (Phase 1) and was followed by two distinct phases of occupation. Phase 2 was inside the higher-walled structure where there may have been a wooden roundhouse with a raised floor, although direct evidence is lacking; a central fireplace was not found. A fierce fire put an end to this occupation, the wall was pulled down and an iron door-handle left lying in the passage. A small Roman jar, possibly intact, had already arrived on the site. The ruins were re-occupied in Phase 3 after a ramp had been built against the entrance passage to make access easier. Roman material was inside this ramp and in the secondary deposits and, though it and the native pottery suggested that occupation did not continue beyond the third or fourth centuries, a sherd of E ware on top of this layer implies that it went on at least until 500, a conclusion supported by a piece of pumice from about 400.

  • Aspects of the Origin of the Brochs of Atlantic Scotland
    ASPECTS OF THE ORIGIN OF THE BROCHS OF ATLANTIC SCOTLAND Euan W. MacKie INTRODUCTION Everyone has doubtless heard of the broch of Mousa in Shetland, the best preserved and most impressive of all those Iron Age drystone towers - between six and seven hundred in number - that have survived in various states of preservation over some two millennia [Fig. 2.1). It might be thought that after more than two centuries of study, and with such an abundance of architectural data available, the 'problem of the brochs' should long have been solved once and for all. Yet the phenomenon still provokes controversy among archaeologists, in terms not only of the kind of society thought appropriate for the production of such architecturally sophisticated buildings, but of the development of the drystone architecture itself and its origins, and also of the identity of its creators. There are a number of reasons for this unsettled picture. One is that modern excavation on broch sites began only fairly recently (in 1948), so that the amount of reliable information about the age of the structures, the development of individual sites and the material culture associated with them is still relatively limited. Another is that systematic fieldwork on brochs - both in terms of the study of their architecture and of the relation­ ship of the buildings to the landscape - is still fairly patchy. For example only in Shetland has sophisticated fieldwork of the latter kind been carried out (Fojut 1982), while the author's studies of broch architecture every­ where (begun in 1963 and carried on intermittently ever since) were only the second of their kind and have not been followed up except in restricted areas.
