Orkney Tour Unstan Chambered Cairn


A Neolithic tomb site. 





The chamber inside was very intimate. 





Inside the tomb are a number of graffiti, including old Norse tunes, new Norse runes, and English. All pretty mischievous say the same thing; ‘I was here’. There are faint stratches that are old runes. 


And new ones. 

They appear on the lintel above this side chamber. 

The modern graffiti:


This is the entrance. 


I really enjoyed the visit.
