Abstract: |
Discusses such aspects of Scottish rotary quern use as handling systems (particularly horizontal slot-handled querns), decoration and an unrecognised class of miniature examples. The growing corpus of rotary querns is starting to reveal regional patternings and concentrations of particular decorative styles. This ongoing investigation is argued to suggest that the picture is more complex than previously understood. Includes Appendix 1: Decorated querns from Scotland. |
