Tour Scotland Video Battle Scene Pictish Stone Aberlemno

Tour Scotland video of the Battle Scene Pictish Stone in the Churchyard at Aberlemno, Scotland. Battle scene between an army of men with long hair and an army of men wearing helmets. Of all the early historic peoples of Scotland, the Picts capture the popular imagination like no other. Although archaeology is gradually uncovering more information about how they lived, they are still best known for their carved monuments, which offer remarkable testimony to their artistic skills. The symbol stones of the Picts are among the most fascinating and enigmatic groups of early medieval sculpture. The purpose and meaning of the stones and carvings still remain something of a mystery, theories range from their use as personal memorials and testaments of clan membership to records of ancient ceremonies and rituals.
