Scotsman Walking Wearing Kilt By Kilhern Chambered Cairn On History Visit To Galloway Scotland

Tour Scotland short 4K Autumn travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a Kilt and Sporran and walking on moorland by Kilhern Chambered Cairn on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to Dumfries and Galloway, Britain, United Kingdom. It is a Neolithic chambered long cairn located on the moorland north west of New Luce. It belongs to the Bargrennan group of cairns, a style unique to south west Scotland characterized by multiple internal burial chambers arranged around a long, stone-built mound rather than a single dominant gallery. It was used a communal resting place for local Neolithic chieftains or high born regional leaders. In later centuries, particularly during the 18th and 19th centuries as local agricultural enclosures, farm dykes, and walls were built, many of the cairn's large stones were pillaged. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome.
