Cup-marked Stones

Abstract

ON a large block of fine-grained hard whitish sandstone near Burghead, Elgin, are forty-four cup-marks of various sizes, but all very finely formed. Four of the cups have channels or grooves of various lengths and running in different directions, but none to the edge of the stone. Five have one ring, and channels of various lengths, and in different directions. Four have got two rings and channels, and one has three rings and a channel. In some cases the rings are not complete, that is, they stop short on either side of the channel, but close to it. One cup has a simple ring.
