À propos de ce contenu audio

Matthew Magee cycles to Scotland's most beautiful and fascinating neolithic sites to interview experts about what the sites were used for and what life was like 5,000 years ago.

These stunning, huge, enduring monuments were built at the exact moment we stopped being hunter gatherers and stayed in one place to farm for the first time. Explore the explosion of art, culture and spirituality that happened as Matthew investigates Scotland's oldest places.

      We spend some time inside till recently the most exquisite piece of neolithic architecture in Scotland, Maeshowe in Orkney, and compare its construction to a nearby more recently-found building, and hear from Mark Edmonds about what might have happened in this magnificent structure.

      And you can find more information about the sound experiments at Maeshowe here.

      Matthew untangles a decades-long controversy with an archeaologist who has the most incredibly life-long association with the site of these two neolithic timber halls. It's just as well Ian Ralston's story is so good because there's almost nothing to see at the site itself!
