Callanish Stones in Isle of Lewis - Scotland
Walk among the megaliths at one of Scotland’s most magnificent and best-preserved Neolithic monuments. The Calanais Standing Stones are an extraordinary cross-shaped setting of stones erected 5,000 years ago.
Clava Cairns Site
The Clava cairn is a type of Bronze Age circular chamber tomb cairn, named after the group of three cairns at Balnuaran of Clava, to the east of Inverness in Scotland. There are about 50 cairns of this type in an area roundabout Inverness. They fall into two sub-types, one typically consisting of a corbelled passage grave with a single burial chamber linked to the entrance by a short passage and covered with a cairn of stones, with the entrances oriented southwest towards midwinter sunset. In the other sub-type, an annular ring cairn encloses an apparently unroofed area with no formal means of access from the outside.
