Pretty amazing chambered cairns Getting inside is a treat to see Looks like the covered one will last a while Piling all the dry rocks would have taken some time Enjoyed the cairns explore Cheers 21

The work that went into these, with what tools they had must have taken so long, and to still be standing is simple amazing. Thanks for watching

Cool to see burial mounds / passage graves from another country. I've never heard of a passage grave with a upper and lower level before.

@openmindedwonderer Месяц назад

Neither had I, think it’s the only one in Britain. My thought is the lower one possible and earlier grave to the upper. Always interesting to see other countries burial graves. Love seeing yours 😊

3,500 BC - it's quite incredible to think about the civilisation that made Orkney its home so long ago. More cultured then we imagine, I suspect! Tx for sharing

Thanks Cara - you packed a lot into that visit to Rousay. It is only a small island so wouldn’t imagine a large population but a lot of time & energy invested in building the burial chambers especially the last one! The burial chambers aligned with the Winter solstice remind me of Newgrange ( much smaller scale) in N.Ireland!

@openmindedwonderer 28 дней назад

Yeah it is a small but stunning island but as you say not much of a population but a lot a burial mounds. While Orkney mainland is interesting the islands are even more. Wish I had More time to visit the other. 😊

@ZiggySearchfieldCactus Месяц назад

Very interesting Cara 😎 Lovely bit of stonework 🙂

A fascinating look at all the burial chambers/mounds, Cara. A shame the brock is becoming a victim of coastal erosion. It is unfortunate you weren't able to film inside the first mound but I guess they have good reason. It seemed overkill but the hanger over Maeshowe must be necessary to defend it from the elements. The viewing platform certainly provided a unique perspective but somehow I felt sealing it off in a building kind of killed off the spirituality of the place - did it feel like that when you were there?

@openmindedwonderer 24 дня назад

Yeah the hanger was needed to protect it and i think your right, although that wasn't my worry. Well the walk way above was somewhat old, every time some one moved the whole thing moved. Not good for someone who doesn't really like heights. :-)
