SUMMARY:On-Line Talk: Where Sheep May Safely Graze
DESCRIPTION:The future of The Hall of Clestrain and the Archaeological Investigations \n  \nA Zoom talk by the John Rae Society \nAs you will know if you have ever attended one of our “live” talks\, we always run a raffle to raise additional funds\, and of course we are unable to do this with these online events. However\, should you be feeling so inclined\, you might like to make a small donation to help us with our money raising (cheeky of me I know !) and you can do that here: https://orkneyarchaeologysociety.org.uk/donate/ but please don’t think there is any obligation to do so – truly there isn’t ! \nThe tickets are limited so if you do wish to attend please book quickly at https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/archaeological-investigations-at-the-hall-of-clestrain-john-rae-society-tickets-143430667989 . And if you subsequently find you can’t come along\, please cancel (through the eventbright booking) so we can release your place for someone else. We are planning to record the talk so if you can’t “be there” you should be able to listen to it afterwards.

SUMMARY:Talk: Orkney Runes & book launch
DESCRIPTION:Dr Raghnild Ljosland will give a talk on Orkney Runes \nThis talk explores the runic inscriptions found in Orkney which seem to have been made with a ‘magical’ purpose in mind: A runic amulet made from a bear’s tooth\, and two inscribed pieces of metal. These will be explained in the light of other similar finds from Scandinavia\, and we get a glimpse into the beliefs and superstitions among the medieval Norse. \nAlso\, book launch for ‘The Orkney Book of Runes’\, & music by Kate Fletcher and Corwen Broch. \nPoster – PDF
