ARCH Lecture Series
ARCH starts a new lecture series – to be held on the last Monday of every month (except December) from October to May.

Monday, 25th October: The Brighter the Light, the Darker the Shadows: Recent Excavations at High Pasture Cave and the Fiskavaig Rock Shelter, Skye
Steven Birch will describe excavations at these important sites in Skye which have shed light on settlement, material culture and ritual practices in the Iron Age.

Monday, 29th November: Aerial Photography
Jim Bone will talk about the development of Aerial Photography, and its usefulness in
archaeology, illustrated by many of the slides he has taken over the years.

Monday, 31st January: Prehistoric Rock Art in the Scottish Highlands
John Wombell will look at examples of rock art from around the Highlands and elsewhere in Britain, and consider what this most enigmatic phenomenon can tell us about prehistoric people.

All lectures will be in Dingwall Community Centre at 7:30pm and will be followed by coffees and teas. Suggested donation of £3 per lecture.
Further details of the lectures after Christmas will be in the next newsletter and on the website.
