Ancient Civilisation in Remote Scottish Isles 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 / History Documentary

I visited a well preserved stone age village on a remote Scottish island. Skara Brae is 5000 years old and one of the best preserved Neolithic settlements in the world. Part 3 of my HYPERBOREAN ODYSSEY series includes Orkney, the Isle of Skye in the Hebrides, Fingal's Cave amd Ailsa Craig both steeped in Gaelic folklore, and the island of Iona where the Columban abbey was established until it was destroyed by Vikings.
