Description
An account of the resource
<p>At Pictavia Visitor Centre you can discover the story of Scotland’s ancient Pictish tribes, who lived around two thousand years ago. The Romans called them the Picti - 'painted people' and it is thought they coloured their bodies with bright paints and dyes. The Picts left a fascinating legacy; magnificent standing stones which have survived to the present day, intricately carved, depicting animals, battle scenes, references to everyday life and mysterious symbols. </p><p>Tel: 01356-626241</p><p><a href="http://www.pictavia.org.uk/">www.pictavia.org.uk</a> </p>
