Abstract

This thesis represents the results of extensive field survey in Shetland, supported by bibliographical research and by the inspection of private and public collections of artefactual material. The aims of research were twofold : to establish the place of Shetland in the development and spread of brochs in Scotland, and to investigate the palaeogeography of the period, with a view to extending the knowledge of Iron Age Shetland available from more traditional, excavation-based, studies. These two objectives determined the structure of the presentation of results.
