Dave.That’s very interesting about the Viking ‘graffiti’, David! November 8th 2007 Arriving back off the ferry in Oban on the evening of October 31st, I quickly found my hostel, only a short trudge away and complete with a group of hostellers dressing up, determined to wreak Halloween havoc (or at least go out and rouse the locals at the pub on the corner.) In the Early Medieval period, which began in the fifth century CE, much of southern Britain (comprising much of the area that later became the nation-state of England), adopted a variant of Germanic culture from continental Europe, likely due to migration from that region. In the distance, the woods and salt marshes stretch away towards the Firth of Lorn.The footprint stone, looking in roughly the same directionThe fortifications at Dunadd were wrapped around the summit of the hill in successive layers so that visitors must have had the impression of progressing through three or four distinct tiers before they gained the king’s presence. That’s a wonderful idea about some Ogham being a musical score – and why not, after all? I’m no historical expert, but according to some Scotland was named after a princess of Egyptian birth, named Scotia, who led her people from Egypt to Ireland, where some of them eventually moved on to Scotland.

Dunadd is an Ironage, (and later) hillfort and is thought to … It really fires your imagination – you feel as if those long-lost ancestors are almost close enough to touch.
How amazing. It’s always a compromise, I can see that… but part of me wishes that we didn’t have to make it.Dunadd may not have been abandoned immediately. The rocky outcrop of Dunadd, Argyll, was far more than a defensive fortress however. In the mid 9th century he conquered the Pictish kingship and restored the Gaels' fortunes as they moved east to take over Pictland.Kenneth's triumph was Dunadd's end as ultimately the Kingdom Dál Riata vanished from history and the lands of Argyll fell under Norse control.
Love the photos and love your writing style – a magical mix of facts and your own observations, ideas and musings!
