Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
A study of lettering on pre-1855 Scottish tombstones was made to investigate patterns of geographical and temporal variation. A sample of 132 mainland kirkyard sites was surveyed and data analysed. The results demonstrate clear trends in the interpretation of inscriptional lettering by masons suggesting strong cultural affinities between geographically adjacent sites. Includes Appendix: List of sites surveyed by region. | ||||
