Ness of Brodgar Dig

For those of you outside the UK who may have missed all the publicity regarding the Ness of Brodgar archaeological dig, here is a treat for you. A short clip was shown on the PBS network, with an interview with Nick Card (leader of the dig) while on a lecture tour in the US.

Hopefully clicking on THIS shows it!

Meanwhile the annual dig begins again in mid-July and members of the public can wander up and watch the excavations or join a tour and hear all about it until about mid-August.

      There have been quite a few programmes on it in the UK but this is the first one I've found that can be viewed outside the UK. Amazing site...

      I'm sure you can well imagine it having been to Orkney too.
