SCOTLAND’S archaeological record flatly contradicts the traditional British (and subsequent Hollywood) depiction of prehistoric Scotland as a poorly-populated untamed wilderness filled with barely-human woodland people with no language, no clothes, and no permanent habitation.
We’re supposed to believe that thousands of Iron Age parents, teachers, farmers, and engineers spent most of their impossibly short lives standing half-naked in the rain, usually behind a tree but always half-caked in mud, for absolutely no reason.
