At the top there’s a dark snaking form. Then, a zigzag with linked discs positioned in the angles. At the base, there’s a circular form that can best be described as resembling a looking-glass mirror. This is the Aberlemno ‘Serpent Stone’, and the carvings date to the 500s or early 600s AD. Just a few metres further along the grassy verge is another carved stone, and then another. A final enigma stands in the churchyard nearby. The village of Aberlemno is, for unknown reasons, blessed with one of the best collections of ancient Pictish art in existence. The Picts are the almost-legendary race of people who lived in what’s now north and eastern Scotland until the 900s AD. The Romans coined the name, from the Latin picti, meaning ‘painted people’. It wasn’t intended to be complimentary, but rather to describe their savage, barbarian ways. These Picts, the Roman writers said, fought naked but for their paint, and were happy to wade neck-deep through swamps in order to wage guerrilla warfare. They were battle-hardened, proud people, who thrived in the harsh northern lands beyond the Roman frontier. Left The Serpent Stone, with snake, Double-Disc and Z-Rod, and mirror and (less discernable) comb at the bottom. It might spell out a Pictish leader’s name from 1,500 years ago, if only we knew how to read it. The back of this stone also has prehistoric ritual cup marks – perhaps a reason the Picts decided to use this stone for carving in the first place. Uffington White Horse | Oxfordshire Bronze Age Sun and Horse Worship This is the oldest hill figure in the country, and it’s a beauty. Close up, it’s hard to see how the lines fit together, but stand a few hundred metres away and you’ll see an elongated equine body, lean and light, flowing across the undulations of the hillside. The horse gallops above an unusual natural feature called the Manger, a dry valley with springs at its base, and a low round knoll, Dragon Hill, to one side. Another 200 m (655 ft) further up the hill is a large hillfort enclosure known as Uffington Castle. Archaeologists have dated the horse by taking samples from the soil directly below the lowest level of chalk and testing them with a technique called ‘optically stimulated luminescence dating’. It determines when quartz particles in the soil were last exposed to sunlight. The sun last shone down on the soil under the horse at the end of the Bronze Age, or start of the Iron Age, between 1200–800 BC. It means the horse is about 3,000 years old. The fact that it has survived means that an unbroken chain of 150 generations of people have climbed the hill to preserve it, pulling out the encroaching grass and repacking the outline with fresh chalk, pounded into place. If just one generation of people had decided not to bother, the horse would have disappeared into the hillside, and been lost forever. Left An unbroken chain of people have maintained this ancient hill figure, or ‘geoglyph’ for 3,000 years. It’s a horse, but it does have a funny shaped head. And a beak. Tintagel | Cornwall King Arthur’s Island of Stories Tintagel is almost an island – surrounded by sea but linked to the main Cornish coast by an increasingly slim strip of rock and sand. It’s like the set of a Hollywood showstopper, steeped in myth, a perfect backdrop for tales of knights and damsels from a lost age. The archaeological reality is a little more nuanced, but just as stunning. The name ‘Tintagel’ originates from early Cornish, with din meaning ‘fort’

4. (similar to dùn in Scotland) and tagell meaning ‘neck of land’. The island and the main coastline were, until some point in the 1500s, joined by a land bridge wide enough to be built upon, but a series of landslides has rendered it even more dramatically inaccessible now than it was in antiquity. There’s not much evidence for human activity on Tintagel from the Roman period, but from about AD 450–650 it became a place of wealth and power, with the remains of at least 100 buildings surviving and a large defensive ditch that you can still see. Most significantly, excavators found the remains of pottery amphorae used to store olive oil and wine, fancy red-and-black tableware and glassware from southern Spain. The amphorae were imported from modern-day Turkey, Greece, Tunisia and Syria, and excavations at Tintagel have yielded more of this kind of imported pottery than anywhere else in Britain, so it was clearly somewhere special. Left The Earl of Cornwall built a real castle that could pass as the location for the exploits of legendary heroes and heroines. Tintagel is a medieval Neverland.
