main image Stone circle, Stenness, Orkney
Excavations in 1973 revealed a central setting of stones, pottery, cremated bone and charcoal – dated to the early 3rd Millenium BC.

Bones found in the ditch included domestic ox, sheep as well as wolves and dog.

The circle has a ditch with an extenal bank and two entrances. It has been suggested that 20,000 hours of work were involved in preparing these.
