Abstract:
A survey of strengths and weaknesses stresses the high quality of the evidence and the variability of the attention paid to it. The transition Meso to Neo is like that of the rest of the British Isles, and certainly not derived from Yorks. Causewayed enclosures and field systems are not yet evident. Radiocarbon does not help much as yet. Diversity of mortuary practice is marked: a model for NE Scotland is proposed. In later Neo, power symbols are arriving and power is being centralized. Grooved Ware decoration is an encoding of role and status (nationwide), and tombs are being elaborated. Pottery handlist and discussion.
