Archaeologists are now in a race against time to fully excavate and preserve the site at Newark on Orkney mainland which is being protected in the short term by sandbags. The site is particularly vulnerable to the impact of south easterly winds with the ground, which is formed of soft boulder clay, now prone to landslides as it holds on to high volumes of rainwater... In 2016 a Carved Pictish Type 2 stone was exposed and excavated by ORCA Archaeology. It is believed that the cemetery could hold invaluable information about the little-understood transition between the Pictish era and the...

Recent excavations at Lewiston by AOC Archaeology revealed over 35 Neolithic pits arranged in six broad clusters. These contained broken Carinated Bowls, flint and quartz flakes, coarse stone tools, and finer flint tools, mixed in with burnt cereals and hazelnut shells. Bayesian modelling of radiocarbon dates obtained from hazelnuts and wood charcoal demonstrates that activity associated with the pits was short-lived, spanning less than 40 years between 3661 cal BC and 3532 cal BC -- a period within the transition between the early and middle Neolithic... The site -- which lies close to the western shore of Loch Ness --...

Boris Johnson has revived plans to build a £20 billion bridge between Scotland and Northern Ireland — with engineers looking to copy the link between Sweden and Denmark which featured in a hit “Scandi noir” crime drama. The Prime Minister, who is keen to sanction a series of grand infrastructure projects as a legacy of his rule, is about to receive the results of a feasibility study into the construction of a combined bridge and tunnel connection at the narrowest, 20-mile gap between Northern Ireland and the British mainland. One version of the plan would be modeled on the Öresund...

UNEXPLAINED sightings of something mysterious lurking in Loch Ness were at the highest level this century during 2019. A total of 18 sightings were recorded on the Official Loch Ness Monster Sightings Register – the highest since 1983. They ranged from eyewitness accounts by visitors to the area to unusual objects spotted by people on the other side of the world scouring images on a live webcam of the loch. The entries also include a sighting by seriously-ill Zachary White, aged five, who travelled from his home in Berkshire to the loch and spotted the monster after being given a...

By the summer of last year, Glasgow had the highest number of housed refugees in the UK with almost 10% of the "asylum seekers" setting up shop in the Scottish city. The overflow of refugees, many of them from Pakistan, Iraq, and Afghanistan, has brought in government money, but also violence and crime. Refugees whose requests for asylum are rejected refuse to leave and remain on in Glasgow. Glasgow had been eager to cash in on asylum seekers, and in the last two decades was fundamentally transformed by the tide of migrants filling up its neighborhoods. As Pakistanis became the...

The blood libel is one of the most hateful and destructive lies launched against the Jewish people over the centuries. While it takes on many different forms, it boils down to the false accusation that the Jews would kidnap and kill a non-Jewish child (or adult), using the victim’s blood for some ritual purpose. In the last week, it has raised its ugly head once again. According to the ADL, “The ‘blood libel’ refers to a centuries-old false allegation that Jews murder Christians – especially Christian children – to use their blood for ritual purposes, such as an ingredient in...

Four Chinese patients have been taken to hospital in Scotland and tested for the killer coronavirus after returning from China with flu-like symptoms, it can be revealed. The unidentified patients are thought to be from Wuhan, the city at the heart of the outbreak which has killed 18 people – officials today revealed the first person had died outside of Wuhan's province Hubei. Up to 10,000 patients in the city may already be infected, scientists fear – but only 601 cases have been confirmed. ... Scientists have today revealed the never-before-seen virus can be spread by coughs and sneezes from...

Four patients in Scottish hospitals are being tested after showing symptoms of coronavirus. The new strain of the virus has so far killed 17 people in China and there are more than 500 confirmed cases. Prof Juergen Haas, a specialist in infectious diseases at the University of Edinburgh, said three of the suspected cases were in Edinburgh. All the patients had respiratory symptoms and had been in Wuhan, thought to be the source, in the last 14 days. Wuhan has gone into lockdown, along with another Chinese city, Huanggang. The fourth case in Scotland is thought to be in Glasgow.

A massive lightning strike which hit the Isle of Lewis more than 3,000 years ago may have inspired ancient civilisations to build stone circles, academics believe. Scientists studying a prehistoric stone circle on the Outer Hebrides island discovered evidence of a lightning strike on a nearby site where a circle had been hidden beneath a peat bog. Just one stone remained standing at the site, known as Site XI or Airigh na Beinne Bige, which overlooks the main stone circle, Tursachan Chalanais, at Calanais on the Isle of Lewis. But it is believed that the single stone was once part...

Over 1,000 bullets and 11 guns have been lost or stolen from the Army, the Ministry of Defence has admitted amid fears they could be in the hands of criminals. The missing munitions, including eight rifles and 1,000 rounds of ammunition taken in one burglary from a Merseyside army cadet facility, all disappeared within twelve months, a Sky News investigation found. The news comes just weeks after the Telegraph revealed hundreds of unexploded munitions had been found in Scotland over the past three years. Land mines, grenades and flares have all been recovered, including several in the city centres of...

...First, there is the question of what currency Scotland would use. This, readers will recall, was an issue in 2014. Then, Alex Salmond blithely said Scotland would go on using the pound, much as little islands in the Caribbean use the dollar. Many such islands live in poverty extreme by our standards, largely as a result of having a currency that does not reflect the weakness of their economy. At least many of them are tourist destinations and entice people in to spend foreign currency; Scotland will have to develop itself considerably as a cold-weather theme park if it is...

Deacon Nick Donnelly has reported that the Hermits of Westray received notification of their excommunication on Christmas Day. The three Scottish hermits were reportedly excommunicated for a post on their website entitled “The Declaration.” In the post, the hermits declare: Never in history has there been such a Pope, who by his actions, words and teaching, has thrown the whole Church into confusion. There have been bad and immoral Popes like John XII, and Alexander VI, there have been mad Popes, like Urban VI, there have been severe and unbalanced reforming Popes like Paul IV, and there have been pleasure...

Could Boris Johnson's election victory mean that Scotland now leaves the United Kingdom? That's the question lots of people in the country are now asking after the dramatic result on Friday. The issue was brought into focus on Friday after Johnson won a large majority of seats mostly off the back of votes in England, whereas seats in Scotland were won almost entirely by the separatist Scottish National Party. Despite Johnson's pledge to form a "one nation" government, a quick glance at the UK's new electoral map reveals a nation more politically divided than ever. In England, Johnson swept the...

The fallout from the Conservative Party's massive win in the British elections continues. It's washed ashore in America, as the far left is fearful that the results do not bode well for the eventual Democratic candidate against Donald Trump. But of more immediate concern to the British is what is happening in Scotland as a result of the election. The separatist Scottish National Party destroyed the Conservatives as the Tories now hold only one seat. This has emboldened the SNP to prepare to call for a second referendum on independence. The first referendum in 2014 was fairly close with those...

The Liberal Democrat leader, Jo Swinson, has been toppled in her own seat, throwing her future at the head of the party into serious doubt after a dismal showing at the polls generally. Swinson, who started the campaign claiming she could be the next prime minister, lost in her East Dunbartonshire constituency to the SNP, a result that capped a disastrous night for her party. Though Lib Dem numbers in the Commons swelled before the election to 21, aided by MPs crossing the floor, the Ipsos Mori exit poll predicted the party winning 13 seats – only one more than...

On 2 October 2019, following an early dusting of snow in Highlands, a retired geography teacher from Inverness called Helen Rennie hiked up to a gentle slope near the top of Cairn Gorm, clipped on her skis and slid a short distance downhill... In doing so she made history, becoming the first person to ski on Scottish snow at least once a month, every month for ten years. Typically, when adventurers complete notable challenges, there is some sort of fanfare: cheering crowds, jostling camera crews, salivating sponsors. In Rennie’s case, however, the celebrations were far from extravagant. “I’m not really...

Survivors of the attack sought sanctuary in the church, but the Rosses set fire to it, killing all those hiding inside...
