Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
the paper investigates the locations of the chambered cairns of Orkney and northern mainland Scotland with specific reference to the sea, especially their visibility. In relation to location and visibility, it is the outer form of the monuments that makes the greatest perceptual impact. A complex typology of monument forms is abandoned in favour of two basic and distinct types: round and elongated cairns. The cairns in both areas are sited in similar topographical locations. In Orkney many were located to be visible from the sea, in mainland northern Scotland they were sited to be visible from the likely areas of settlement | |||
