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!
