Abstract:		 The finding at Leckie of a large proportion of the type of equipment (including weapons and farm tools) used by a well-off occupier in 2nd AD leads to reaffirmation of the view that the onset of broch-building relates to a new phase, in the Middle Iron Age, of contact with S England, Ireland, and Brittany. Cited in support are glass bracelets and beads; rotary querns of disc type, usually with capacity for adjusting fineness of product; and pottery which may be compared with a fluted-rim black-burnished ware from Brittany. The function of brochs is clear, from Shetland evidence, as fortified farmhouses of a minor tribal aristocracy, each controlling twenty-fifty nearby families.
