After reading Stonehenge,  I saw a reference to the huge burial mound in Ireland when the character camaban went there by boat via the western sea…I was wondering your thoughts about skara brae, the neolithic settlement in the orkneys…who were they? Was the climate more habitable than Orkney in modern times? It will be hard enough living there today, let alone before electricity and modern comforts… It is so far north I didn’t think human habitation reach that far away from the mainland Europe so far back in time… Were they from remanents of a lost civilization? Or where the Orkneys, mainland of Britain, Ireland, all connected to the mainland Europe at the time? (Doggerland?)
