Archaeologists Baffled By A 2,000-Year-Old Skeleton Found In Scotland With Its Brain Scooped Out And Its Bones Turned Into Tools
These questions are not answerable from the Loch Borralie evidence alone.
They require the kind of systematic comparative work that the COMMIOS project and analogous research programs are in the process of generating.
The Loch Borralie study is a significant contribution to that larger project, and its significance will be amplified as more comparative evidence becomes available.
The stones of the cairn have done their work.
The bones within them have told their story, as far as the physical evidence can tell it.
The questions that the story opens are now the province of the researchers, the students, and the communities who will engage with this evidence in the years and decades to come.

My husband would only laugh and say, “You’re just out of shape, that’s all.” After the fourth ride, I secretly slipped a voice recorder into my purse and said nothing. That night, I listened to a phone conversation between the two of them that revealed my blackouts had never been accidental.
