Saturday 7th January 2012: Rock art at Achnabreck





The largest expanse of rock art in Scotland, I’m told.
Cup-and-ring marked rock carvings are prehistoric in date and cover a huge flat piece of stone; some are concentric rings with seperate rings connected by grooves, while others are just ordinary cup marks. Purpose? Symbolic, ritualistic or as a kind of marker between certain places of sacredness? And D, Meg and I were there today. Brilliant.
PS so much lichen on the trees especially old man's beard. And what's good for lichen is good for us.
