What's a wulver? Find out in part 3 of our series on Scottish Myths & Legends, in celebration of the Disney/Pixar movie Brave! Learn more about Scotland's famous coronation stone, the Stone of Destiny. Can it be traced all the way back to Biblical times? Was it brought to Scotland by Scoti, an Egyptian princess? We'll also discuss the life of 13th century laird and prophet Thomas the Rhymer, and we'll take a closer look at those ghostly lights known as Will o' the wisps. All this plus new music from The Proclaimers, Wolfstone, Capercaillie, and more!
