WORK by academics from the University of Bradford will be in a documentary being broadcast on Channel 5 tonight.
Archaeological experts have been helping unearth the ancient past of a Scottish cave, including tales of prehistoric executions and death rituals.
Underground Britain is a new series beginning at 8pm and features a project being led by Professor Ian Armit of the School of Archaeological Sciences.
Professor Armit and Dr Lindsey Büster have been carrying out research at the Sculptor’s Cave, Moray.
Prof Armit said: “It is a fascinating location, known for decades for the richness of its archaeology and for the unusual Pictish carvings around its entrance. There were many human remains in the cave, mostly from the Bronze Age when the cave was a significant funerary site.”
