Join Stuart McHardy, author of Scotland’s Geomythography, and look at ancient Scotland through new eyes. Through a lifetime of research as a musician and storyteller, combined with decades of teaching, McHardy has forged a new approach to understanding Scotland's past. Combining archaeology and history with place-name and landscape analysis, and drawing information from oral tradition, he has found evidence to reveal how our ancient forebears understood their world. Behind modern beliefs and assumptions lies a network of local and national cultural treasure that has much to teach us in our ever-changing world.
