Video: Art and architecture in Neolithic Orkney – a talk by Dr Antonia Thomas

The third of the UHI Archaeology Institute’s Tombs of the Isles recorded talks, this time featuring Dr Antonia Thomas, the Ness project’s Neolithic art specialist.

In Art and Architecture in Neolithic Orkney, Antonia sets the scene for the final two talks in the series by exploring Neolithic architecture and art in the islands, with examples from sites such as the Ness of Brodgar, Maeshowe and Skara Brae.

Funded by the North Isles Landscape Partnership (NILPS), the Tombs of the Isles project has documented the known, and suspected, chambered cairns in Orkney’s North Isles – and further investigated some.
