Had a brilliant time leading ‘Viking Skills’ workshops for the Derbyshire Scout’s Experimental Archeology weekend in Gradbach. Adapted our usual Vikings for Schools activities for the workshop with the Scouts carving clay runic inscriptions and building their own ship burial!

Amazing views over the Stronsay Firth from the conference room at UHI Orkney. Incredibly apt location for the Mapping Identities: Geography and Cosmology workshop. Many thanks to organisers Oisín and Andrew, other speakers, and hosts @insuhi.bsky.social for a brilliant day!
