New ORCA report details 1985 Vinquoy excavation for the first time
The UHI Archaeology Institute has published a report of the 1985 re-excavation of Eday’s Vinquoy Hill chambered cairn, dedicating it to the late Jacqui Marwick, the archaeologist who led the operation.
Funding from the North Isles Landscape Partnership (NILPS) allowed ORCA staff to comb through the excavation records, putting together an account of the work for the first time.
The report, Vinquoy Hill Chambered Cairn, Eday, Orkney: Excavations of a Neolithic Tomb 1985, by Jacqui Marwick, Marie Bøe, Amanda Brend and Dan Lee, can be downloaded here.
