Time Team Dig – Sanday, Orkney

These are details of digs by Time Team in Scotland including website links and programme details

The Viking invasion was a significant event in British history. Orkney was used by the ‘Northmen’ as a stepping stone for their forays, and on the Ness of Brough on the island of Sanday, Time Team investigated a series of mounds that might just be a Viking burial site.
