There's a link at the bottom of the article to some videos by one of the archaeologists working at the site. Definitely worth a watch. And I feel sorry for them - as exciting as the dig must be, the weather at the moment must be miserable.
There's also a piece (a few months old now) on how it's looking like Neolithic houses on Orkney were painted:
"There has been evidence at some other Neolithic sites where paint pots have been found with remains of pigment but they were considered to be for personal adornment rather than being used on a wider scale for the decoration of buildings.
"This is a first for the UK, if not for northern Europe.
"The use of colour in this particular way was always suspected but this is the first concrete evidence we have of it."
He added: "It is not Rembrandt though, it is pretty basic designs."
Over on Shetland, a prehistoric house has been discovered during the building works for a gas plant, with lots of unusual features. See The Shetland Times for more details.
All I can say is, I'm sooo saving my pennies for a holiday next year.
