Scotland in Pagan Times: The Iron Age

This highly illustrated book on the Iron Age in Scotland was published in 1883. The first two lectures consider types of burial: pagan, Christian and later Viking. A lecture on Celtic art is followed by consideration of the unique drystone-walled Scottish brochs. A final chapter examines lake-dwellings, hill-forts, and earth-houses.
