Rosemarkie

Researchers in Scotland believe that they are closer to understanding a man who was brutally killed 1,400 years ago. His body was placed in a most unusual position in a cave and investigators believe that the skeleton, whose skull was smashed, was probably a member of the Pictish elite – possibly even a royal. In 2016 a team of investigators from the Rosemarkie Caves Project were exploring caves along the coast of the Black Isle in the Highlands of Scotland. In the recesses of a cave, they made a grisly discovery. They found a burial with an intact skeleton whose skull had a gaping hole. This discovery caused a sensation in Scotland.
