Among the new intake of diggers at the Ness of Brodgar today were students from the UHI Archaeology Institute, who are taking part in the excavation field school required as part of their degrees.
The students, watched over by Kevin Kerr and Dr Ben Elliott, were set to work in Trench Z – the extension to 2005’s Trench I – to reveal, once again, Structure Two. How does this early building relate to Structure Five, the earliest excavated building on site?
Stay up to date with their progress with the Ness daily diary.
