    What an amazing discovery! Looking forward to visiting Kilmartin Glen again. Last time I was there the discovery had just been made and the area was blocked off while they investigated. Well done Hamish Fenton!

    There are quite a number of Prehistoric Rock Carving of animals in Scotland. These are very beautiful... but they are not the only, nor the first, discovered.

    Lol no there are not. Please provide specific examples if you know something that Historic Environment Scotland don't 🤣 If you're referring to Pictish art, then you're several thousand years out.

    These are the first figurative but there are many examples of prehistoric rock carvings in Scotland but they are of a geometric nature.

    @@doubleyellows6742 I am referring to Prehistoric RA. You seem unaware of examples. I am not referring to Pictish carvings! HES are well aware. I am referring to the deer and horses near Garlieston, the deer and birds at Stronach, the deer at Blackford, the wondrous carving at Barharrow and the amazing Achnabreck Goose.

    its not a burial site....its a "bomb" shelter, built by people mortally afraid of the sky and what can come from it

    Okay, I'll bite. We talking meteors, Martians, what? Why would they be afraid of the sky to such a degree?
