The Picts were an ancient nation who ruled most of northern and
eastern Scotland during the Dark Ages. Despite their historical
importance, they remain shrouded in myth and misconception.
Absorbed by the kingdom of the Scots in the ninth century, they
lost their unique identity, their language and their vibrant
artistic culture. Amongst their few surviving traces are standing
stones decorated with incredible skill and covered with enigmatic
symbols - vivid memorials of a powerful and gifted people who
bequeathed no chronicles to tell their story, no sagas to describe
the deed of their kings and heroes. In this book Tim Clarkson
pieces together the evidence to tell the story of this mysterious
people from their emergence in Roman times to their eventual
disappearance.
