S2 E03/ Doon Hill

For decades archaeologists thought Doon Hill was the site of timber buildings from 600AD. But Ian Ralston found an identical one in Aberdeenshire that was neolithic and set out on a decades-long journey to uncover the truth about Dooh Hill, a journey that had begun when he had dug there as a boy.

There’s not a lot to see up on Doon Hill, but the site is fascinating and demonstrates an important moment in the early phase of the movement of neolithic people to Scotland.
