There’s nothing better than a free book – particularly if its a book about Orkney archaeology!
The Development of Neolithic House Societies in Orkney: Investigations in the Bay of Firth, Mainland, Orkney (1994–2014) details the Cuween-Wideford Neolithic Landscape Project, which was led by our very own Professor Colin Richards.
The project which identified and excavated four Neolithic settlements (Stonehall, Smerquoy, Crossiecrown and Wideford Hill) in the vicinity of Wideford Hill, and three others further afield (Varmedale, Muckquoy and the Knowes of Trotty).
With chapters co-authored by numerous UHI Archaeology Institute staff, the 2016 book was edited by Colin Richards and Richard Jones, and is available free here.
