The Mystery Of Glasgow’s Dark Age Brittonic Graveyard | Time Team | Chronicle

Time Team explores a graveyard in Scotland containing ancient gravestones dating back to the Dark Ages, along with hogback tombstones associated with Vikings. The team aims to solve the mystery of who was buried here and why, with the help of archaeologist Anna Richie. They suspect there might have been an early Christian church in the area due to the rounded boundary of the graveyard, typical of early Christian enclosures. They investigate possible connections between the site and nearby political centers, including Dumbarton Rock and Strathclyde. Welcome to Chronicle; your home for all things medieval history!
