Abstract:		 The `good stones' are a group of fifty or more distinctive ring-cairns and passage graves around the Moray Firth. This report documents survey and excavation in 1994--97 of the core monuments at Balnuaran of Clava, Petty, Inverness-shire, with additional information from newly discovered remnant and lesser-known Clava sites (including a ring-cairn at Newton of Petty, excavated in 1975--77). The monuments are described in terms of their structural elements, design, construction and orientation, the placement and selection of stones, decoration with cup marks, and their use for deposition of cremations, lithic scatters and seashells. The cairns were constructed in a domestic landscape, and chronological appraisal prompted by radiocarbon dating places them in the wider burial and ritual scenery of the Early and Late Bronze Age. The following reports are included:
