Video: Professor Colin Richards on death and burial in Neolithic Orkney
A pair of videos from Professor Colin Richards, created for the UHI Archaeology Institute’s Tombs of the Isles project.
In the first, Death and burial in Neolithic Orkney, Colin looks at the Neolithic and the role of chambered cairns in the islands. In the second (below), he delves deeper into Neolithic mortuary practice and the Maeshowe-type chambered cairns.
