Video: A visit to Maeshowe 60 years ago
Another from the BBC Archive, again featuring Cathal O’Shannon but this time visiting the Maeshowe chambered cairn in Stenness.
The clip focuses mainly on the 12th century runic graffiti within the 5,000-year-old, Neolithic structure.
Again, and perhaps even more so than the Skara Brae clip, remember that the information presented regarding Maeshowe is now out-of-date (e.g., it’s not Bronze Age).
