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.

  • Eassie Primary School September 2013
    Eassie Primary School September 2013 Dear Parents/Carers We have lots of exciting news to share with you and a few reminders. Please don’t hesitate to contact school if you have any questions . School staff are always happy to meet with you but please contact school to make an appointment to avoid disappointment. We have enjoyed assemblies this term with our chaplain Carleen, she used the themes of working together and what can be achieved when everyone works as a team. Our Primary 7 pupils had a brilliant time at Dalguise and I have nothing but praise for them and from the other teachers about the children’s cheerfulness and excellent behaviour. They are a credit to Eassie and their parents! Charity Shop A huge thank you to staff, parents, carers, families and friends who so generously gave their time to drive goods to and from the shop and work in the shop (one parent used two days of her holiday to do this!) over the last two weekends and all last week. Thank you also to everyone who generously donated goods and spent lots of money in the shop. A fantastic amount of nearly £2500 was made in the shop with more to come from the recycled clothes. There was a super atmosphere in the shop and the P4-7 children enjoyed their sessions in the shop. It was a great experience for them learning how to deal with customers and taking money and giving change (real maths!). Pupil Council Pupil Council members were recently appointed; Class (13/14 ) Names P1 Findlay Brown P2 Tommy Cosgrove P3 Fergus Durston P4 Onjira Patullo P5 Caitlin Beattie P6 Dylan Skibinski P7 Jakkrin Patullo Meetings will be held monthly, with P4-7 children attending the full meeting and P1-3 children coming for the first 20 minutes.

  • Angus Maritime Trail
    Maritime Trail Walk in the steps of your ancestors www.angusheritage.com The Angus coastline is about 35 miles long, from north of Montrose to the outskirts of Dundee. When roads were poor, goods and people were carried along the coast by ship, and over a dozen distinct communities in Angus made their living from the vibrant and bustling coast. But the sea could be dangerous and unpredictable and many lives were lost through shipwrecks and storms. All Angus coastal settlements began as small villages, with residents earning part of their income from fishing. This fluctuated over time. Fishing villages grew if the conditions were right. Boats needed to be safe when not at sea, perhaps sailed into natural inlets on the rocky coast or hauled onto shingle beaches. Families needed ground where they could build houses with easy access to the shore, with somewhere Montrose harbour to land catches, prepare fish for sale and maintain boats, nets and lines. Houses could be built on narrow plots between the sea and coastal cliffs, or above those cliffs, with steep paths leading to the landing area. Some communities built harbours, providing shelter for moored boats and sites for fish markets and other maritime businesses. Montrose is a town that thrived as a seaport Montrose Basin - once known as the Land on the edge of rich farmland. The town’s of Sands - was a source of bait for fishing motto; Mare Ditat, Rosa Decorat (the sea communities along the Angus coastline. The enriches, the rose adorns) reflects its nature as shallow water, and regular exposure of sands, a trading town.

  • The Iconography of the Devil: St Vigean's, Eassie and the Book of Kells
    The iconography of the devil: St Vigean's, Eassie and the Book of Kells Cormac Bourke The Innes Review, Volume 58, Number 1, Spring 2007, pp. 95-100 (Article) Published by Edinburgh University Press DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/inn.2007.0000 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/220898 [ This content has been declared free to read by the pubisher during the COVID-19 pandemic. ] The Innes Review vol. 58 no. 1 (Spring 2007) 95-100 Cormac Bourke The iconography of the devil: St Vigean’s, Eassie and the Book of Kells The slab numbered 7 at St Vigean’s, Angus, preserves one decorated face; the other has been largely obliterated and the monument as a whole has been partially cut away.1 A cross on the intact face (Fig. 1) has a rectangular base and is flanked on the left by four standing figures in two registers, between whom is a fifth, inverted, figure. Two figures to the right of the cross, identifiable as SS Paul and Anthony, sit facing each other in the act of sharing bread. Below them a crouching figure wields a knife as though to stab the breast of a horned ox or bull and his tongue is extended as though to lap the animal’s blood (Fig. 2). In the Hendersons’ view, the juxtaposition of this scene with that of Paul and Anthony explores ideas set out in St Paul’s Epistle to the Hebrews, 10, where he contrasts the New Covenant of the Christians with the Old Covenant of the Jews: ‘For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins … (whereas) … we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all’.
