Well what a find! a polished stone ball found in the chamber of the neolithic tomb Tresness Sanday. This find is of real significance as it is one of only a few that has been discovered in a burial context.@UCLanArchAnth @UCLanResearch @hugowhymark @SamWalshOsteo @NtlMuseumsScot

We have arrived! Students @UCLanArchAnth and Staff @NtlMuseumsScot @UniRdg_Arch have arrived on Sanday Orkney to undertake the exciting excavations at Tresness chambered Tomb. #tresness21 #neolithic #archaeology @OAS_Orkney

@CrawliesWithCri @Lisavipes @Hawaiianimages that is pretty grim, poor fluffy face 😞

[Sam Walsh @SamWalshOsteo]

@CrawliesWithCri @Lisavipes @Hawaiianimages Yeah I'm in the uk so not sure we get those 😂 they looked to be the same type.... one must've been hungry
