Members of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland, which has helped Historic Scotland (HS) by producing double volumes over the last few years, have argued against inclusion of large numbers of detailed archaeological reports. The costs to HS of traditional publication have been high. To address these problems HS convened a series of public meetings in the autumn of 1999. The meetings were attended by representatives of all sectors of the archaeological community – professional and voluntary, commercial, curatorial and academic. The consensus of opinion at these meetings favoured the establishment of a new Internet report series to be known as Scottish Archaeological Internet Reports (SAIR).

http://www.dickinson.edu/global/summer_prog/scotland.html
Fieldwork in Classical Archaeology - Scotland East Lothian, Scotland
June 2 to July 3, 2004 Program Overview
The excavation in Scotland is a joint venture between Dickinson and the University of Durham (Department of Archaeology) in England. The enterprise is called "The Traprain Law Project," named from a hill fort that dominates the East Lothian district of southern Scotland. The aim of the project is to excavate farmsteads and small fortified places in order to place the native culture uncovered into historical and social context. The project will also begin to define the role of the Traprain hill fort and Rome in relationship to the culture. The tribe that lived in the area was called “Votadini" by the Romans, This project started in 2002 and will continue for the next few years. Academics
Pre-departure orientation sessions will be scheduled during the spring 2004 semester as preparation for the program. During the excavation, Monday through Friday will be given over to digging, each day beginning at 8:00 am and ending at 5:00 pm, with breaks at 11 am, 1-2 pm, and 3:30 pm. (Be forewarned that weekends may be used if necessary.) Excavation is hard, physical work, and students should be prepared for it. Students will be required to participate in the excavation and keep a daily journal on field archaeology, which will be handed in at the end of the excavation. The project is co-sponsored by the Department of Archaeology at Durham University in England. Students from that department also participate in the excavation.

    Archaeology on the World Wide Web
    by DAVID W.J. GILL
    An article first published in Antiquity 264 (September 1995). Only the electronic sections of the review have been included here Some links no longer exist; updated links now appear in square brackets. Comments and corrections are welcome to d.w.j.gill@swan.ac.uk Discussion Groups This is not a review of how the Internet can be used by archaeologists. There are, for example, numerous discussion groups which use electronic mail to disseminate information. These are of varying quality, and can fill up your electronic mailbox, but can provide some lively and stimulating discussion from scholars round the world. Many of these groups are now advertised on the Web, and an archived summary list can be found at Swansea
    World Wide Web Pages
    There are also many pages which I have not been able to visit. The Web is becoming so popular that some sites are being inundated by electronic visitors, and it has become very difficult or slow to obtain access. My advice (in the UK) is to start surfing early; by 11 am the response time across the network is considerably lengthened. As one of my colleagues put it, 'The early bird catches the World Wide Web Worm'. I have also tried to refrain from writing a review of pages. Pages are being revised all the time and by the time this appears in print, the Web will have changed out of all recognition. In general terms there are three types of pages on the Web that you might wish to consult. The first will consist of indexes of useful pages. These can be general in character or very specialised to a specific topic. The second will serve as information pages. These might include addresses of institutions and publishers, lists of archaeology courses, or perhaps personal home pages (PHPs) where you can learn more about colleagues! The third will consist of research data such as excavation reports, images, journal articles and the like. As a word of warning, remember that it is easy to surf around in the first category and never come across any real data. My advice would be to familiarise yourself with what types of resources are available, then concentrate on finding data suitable for your interests. If you are unable to find anything, consider putting your own page on the Web.

    92. Historic Scotland Hits The Buffers - Urquhart Castle Artefacts Discovered!
    Press Release 18 january 1998 New Archaeological Report Must End Historic scotland s MultiMillion Pound Development Plans at Urquhart Castle.
    http://www.lochness.co.uk/castle/netarchive/archaeology.html
    Press Release 18 january 1998:
    New Archaeological Report Must End Historic Scotland's
    Multi-Million Pound Development Plans at Urquhart Castle

    The Urquhart Castle Action Group (UCAG) today claims a "technical knockout" of Historic Scotland's development plans for the Castle and calls upon them to withdraw their appeal to the Secretary of State without further delay.
    Enquiries were made to Historic Scotland about the report, which was believed to be very damaging to their ambitions. It was understood that many historical artefacts and works were discovered at the site. A UCAG member, Mr. M. Takala, contacted the office of The Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster - the Rt. Hon. David Clarke MP and Minister with responsibility for introducing Labour's new "Freedom of Information Act". Dr. Clarke was informed of the existence of the report and both Highland Council and UCAG's wish to see it placed in the public domain as swiftly as possible.
    UCAG is delighted to announce that, further to contacting Dr. Clarke's office, the report has now been officially distributed to Highland Council and UCAG. The report makes extensive reading, running to some 50 pages. The report should now put an end to any prospect of further development at Urquhart Castle. UCAG wishes to point out that it has been asking for a detailed archaeological report for several years and, had one been commissioned earlier a great deal of tax payer's money would have been saved.
    A number of exploratory trenches were excavated around the Castle and Trench 9 is identified as containing a large ditch, which is considered

    'TREASURE TROVE' LAW IN SCOTLAND
    Introduction
    The law regarding portable antiquities in Scotland differs significantly from that obtaining in England and Wales, and in the debate surrounding the reform of Treasure Trove law there, the Scottish system is often held up as a model to be emulated. This paper sets out to explain briefly the nature of the Scottish 'Treasure Trove' system, and to evaluate its performance and utility with specific regard to coins. For a fuller account of the law and its operation, and for notes on other laws pertaining to portable antiquities in Scotland, the reader is referred to papers by Sheridan (1995a, 1995b), Smith (1973), Stevenson (1969) and Turnbull (1989).
    The law: definition, administration, brief history
    What is loosely referred to as 'Treasure Trove' law consists, in fact, of two ancient common law royal prerogatives - that to Treasure Trove sensu stricto , and that to bona vacantia or 'ownerless items'. Whilst Treasure Trove is restricted to precious items and associated objects which have been concealed (see Smith 1973 for a precise definition of these terms), bona vacantia covers all objects whose original owner or rightful heir cannot be traced, irrespective of the circumstances of deposition - in other words, there is no requirement to demonstrate whether an object was lost, abandoned, buried, hidden or deposited as a votive offering. It covers all types of material (i.e. base and precious metal items, ceramics, stone, textiles etc.). Finders and landowners have no ownership rights, and there is no formal statute of limitations: the Crown can claim objects found some time ago.

    General Introduction to the Newstead Research Project
    The Newstead Research Project is investigating the region surrounding the Roman fort of Trimontium near Newstead, on the River Tweed in the Borders region of southern Scotland. Field research has concentrated both on the Roman military complex of Trimontium itself and on the Iron Age settlement sites in the surrounding region. Trimontium was one of the most important Roman centres of the northern frontier in Britain, and was occupied from the late first century AD through the second. It was extensively excavated in the early years of the twentieth century, producing an outstanding collection of Roman artefacts, from humble wooden tent pegs to highly decorated military parade helmets, all now in the National Museums of Scotland in Edinburgh ( Curle 1911 ). The surrounding region is among the most fertile areas for arable farming in modern Scotland. Its importance seems to have been similar in antiquity, with one of the two biggest of Scotland's hillforts, Eildon Hill North, lying very near Trimontium, and some 150 settlement sites known in the 25 x 25 km area of the Research Project's survey region.
