[MR] BBC: Viking Shipyard on Skye

[Garth G. Groff]

Noble friends, Greetings.

This is a double treat, Vikings AND Scots in the same story! The BBC has 
a short piece on aerial surveys being carried on the Scottish island of 
Skye where a 12th century Viking shipyard has been discovered: 
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-13284989 . The 
surveys will pinpoint possible dig sites for structures and artifacts.

The shipyard is close to, and possibly related to a Viking anchor which 
was found on Skye not long ago: 
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-13284989 . The 
anchor is being returned to the Isles for display after analysis by 
archaeologists and historians: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/10511789 .

Kind regards,


Lord Mungo Napier, That Crazy Scot
