Tour Scotland Temple Wood Stone Circle Video


Tour Scotland Temple Wood Stone Circle Video. This site is found in Kilmartin Glen, and dates from about 3500 BC and may have been in use for over 2000 years. Evidence suggests the cist in the centre was used up untl 1400 BC. Kilmartin Glen is an area in Argyll not far from Kintyre, which has one of the most important concentrations of Neolithic and Bronze Age remains in Scotland. The name of the site originates in the 19th century (coinciding with the planting of trees around the circles) and has no relevance to the purpose of the site. It is located just south of the southern Nether Largie cairn.
