Delivered as the Rhind Lectures in Edinburgh in 1881, these talks by the keeper of Scotland’s national antiquities museum survey the Iron Age remains of Scotland. Anderson discusses Christian and pagan burial, Viking graves and silver hoards in the north, the Celtic art of the pagan period and, at length, the stone towers known as brochs and what was found inside them.
