When people come together, great things happen - including the care, conservation and improved understanding of historic objects like the Stone of Destiny.
Ahead of #StAndrewsDay, we've published a new report on the stone.

The carved head of a Romano-Celtic deity, probably associated with Bertha Roman Fort in Perth. The head may be that of Cernunnos, the Celtic god beasts and wild places. Part of the collections @PerthMuseumUK #RomanSiteSaturday #RomanScotland 📸 My own.

Detail from an 8th century Pictish cross-slab depicting a hooded rider, possibly a monk. The cross-slab was found in the churchyard of St. Madoes in Perthshire, and is now part of the collections @PerthMuseumUK #ReliefWednesday 📸 My own.

One of the objects that caught by eye in @PerthMuseumUK was a Early Bronze Age dagger from cist burial in Forteviot. Hafted with a range of organic materials, including wood, horn, gold and sperm whale tooth. It's quite something!
