Sueno's Stone is a 6.5 metre tall 9th-10th century #Pictish stone near Forres, annoyingly there's a hell of a lot of different historical events that the stone could be representing.

The stone gets its name from Sweyn Forkbeard, whos association to the stone is highlt doubted.

The pectoral cross from the #Viking #Galloway #Hoard found in 2014 and dated to AD900. This Christian cross is possibly #Pictish. It is silver with inlaid gold in the #Cornish Trewhiddle style. The animals represent 3 of the 4 Evangelists.

57.690,-6.386

Duntulm was originally a Pictish fortress, forming one of a chain of duns or forts stretching along the north coast of the Isle of Skye. On the arrival of the Norsemen the fort became the residence of a powerful Viking leader who gave it the name David's Fort. Trotternish often changed hands. It was not until the 16th century that the Lords of the Isles finally seized the territory and Donhall Gorm (Blue Donald) the chief (great-grandson of Hugh of Sleat), took up residence there and carried out considerable improvements to the fort. (Closest History: Duntulm, ~1.82 miles; found via undefined- mile search)

A sneaky peek at the Ulbster #Pictish symbol stone with wee Pictish beastie and seahorse motives. Shame about the 19th century "graffiti" on the reverse though!

Often associated with #pagan or #Pictish #rituals, this practice is seen as a way to connect with ancestors, leave offerings for #fairies, or mark visits to a "gateway to the otherworld"
