Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The inscribed stone was discovered during grave digging in the old churchyard at Weem. The incised inscription is in two lines, separated from each other by a wide interval. The article attempts to interpret the inscription which is difficult to read and probably incomplete as a portion of the undressed stone has recently broken off. The inscription remains undated and undecipherable although a variety of possibilities are considered. The Perthshire place-name of Weem is believed to be derived from the Gaelic word uaim, a cave, there being in the face of the steep precipitous hill known as Weem Rock a cave, or rather there are two caves, one of\r\nthem traditionally having a connection with St Cuthbert. The connection of Cuthbert with Weem rests solely on the Irish Life of that saint. | ||||
