Förlagets beskrivning
Excerpt from On Some Antiquities in the Neighbourhood of Dunecht House AberdeenshireIt was known to the archaeologist that there were ogam inscriptions in the district, two of them being among the most important in Caledonia; and that within an easy motor drive there was a minuscule inscription of six lines of which no satisfactory explanation had been given. This inscription they had visited in a previous year.Further, the quick eye Of the hostess of Dunecht had caught sight of some curious sculptures on a stone by the road-side on the way to the minus cule inscription; and other like stones in the neighbourhood had been shewn in Stuart's two volumes of Sculptural Stones of Scotland.The suggestion was then made that for the sake of visitors at Dunecht a sort Of guide book should be prepared, giving some simple description of the several Objects and their meaning and uses.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
