Welcome to Archaeolink: inside Archaeolink

Stepping into the Iron Age
Val Turner
Steven J Dockrill
Brief report on excavations at Old Scatness Broch and settlement site, Shetland, also noting how the work was communicated to visitors by means of site tours, open days, and a living history demonstration.
Military roads in the Highlands

Letter to the editors
Sheila McGreggor
Observes that crannogs have been used in Scotland from prehistory to the nineteenth century and argues that the majority were built on a raft of stones and horizontal timber frames rather than vertical piles (as used in the Loch Tay reconstruction -- see 98/1108). Evidence for this is drawn from archaeology and recorded folk tradition.

Alastair Roy Rees
