More model informationThis is a high resolution model of one face of a standing stone that forms part of the Ring of Brodgar Stone Circle, Orkney. This stone has been incised with numerous names, initials and dates. A few place names also feature - Evie appears at least 3 times. Many good Orcadian names can be found - Isbister, Marwick and Anderson to name a few. The earliest date I’ve seen on this stone is 1859, with most dates from the 1870s and 1880s.
The stones were not protected when this graffiti was made, but they are now listed as a scheduled ancient monument and it is illegal to deface the stones.
