About this title

Synopsis

This book was the outcome of the first Scottish Summer School in Archaeology which was held in Dundee, 1952. The five scholars set out to define the various aspects of Pictish study then known, combining archaeology, philology and history at an authoritative, masterly but essentially readable level. Archaeology; fortifications; houses and graves; Pictish Art; the Pictish language.
