Another etching from our recent trip to Orkney. About 6 miles from Stromness, these are some of the stones that form the neolithic Ring of Brodgar.

The Neolithic Migration into Orkney

My best guess for how the Migration of people in Neolithic Britain accessed Orkney, how the land that they walked over was eroded away, and how some people remained on Orkney as castaways,  building some of the most evocative structures in the Neolithic world.

The #Pentland Firth is the stretch of water that separates the north of #Scotland from #Orkney.

It is a temperamental passage of water.

Proper archaeologists believe that #Neolithic people migrated to Orkney, across the Firth in boats, to live in #skarabrae and the #NessOfBrodgar.

I'm not a proper archaeologist!
