Abstract:

AbstractDocumentary, cartographic and archaeological sources suggest that agrarian practice in the north east of Scotland from the late sixteenth to the mid eighteenth centuries was more diverse, dynamic and targeted than often supposed. The evidence suggests that Strathbogie saw extensive agricultural expansion throughout the entire period, especially in areas demonstrating earlier under-utilisation. Real improvement and expansion occurred as a result of developing existing traditional systems of agriculture, which was socially at odds with the later and much vaunted ‘Improvements’. These practices maximised productivity by targeting the production of a range of commodities at their most appropriate ecological zones within the overall landscape of the estate, the Lordship of Huntly. Such a model for production appears to have influenced the settlement strategy within those individual ecological zones. However, an over-emphasis upon grain production may, ultimately, have resulted in unsustainable practices, contrasting with earlier more ecologically-targeted ones.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis is a study of George Gordon, sixth earl of Huntly, from July 1581 to March 1595, analysing the role he played in the confessional politics of the period (both national and internation) and how a strong Catholic magnate affected the balance of power and wider policy decisions in Scotland. The thesis is a narrative, with comentary on the political events of the reign of James VI, including the relationship Huntly had with James VI and the wider repercussions thereof. Huntly returned to Scotland from France in July 1581, becoming a courtier and an adherent of Esme Stewart, duke of Lennox. He served a political apprenticeship to Lennox and was exposed to covert Catholic politicking, as well as to the nascent Jesuit mission in Scotland. After James was captured by the Ruthven Raiders in August 1582, Huntly entered politics in his own right, becoming influential in the opposition to the rithven regime. Huntly assisted in enforcing the regime change when James escaped from the Ruthven lords in June 1583, his loyalty to the king winning James's trust and close friendship - the dividends of which he reaped throughout his life. Huntly initially supported the new administration under James Stewart, earl of Arran and assiduously attended to his duties in both the locality and the central government. Following Arran's fall in November 1585, Huntly deliberately distanced himself from the Court and the new Anglophile government. He opposed the anglo-Scottish treaty which was concluded in July 1586 and worked hard to counter the rise of John Maitland of Thirlestane. For the first time, Huntly made contact with the European counter-Reformation in Apriland May 1586. The period June 1587 to April 1589 was marked by faction fighting between Huntly and Maitland, who were both instrumental in James' pursuit of diametrically opposed policies. The discovery of Huntly's covert correspondece with Spain in February 1589 made his Catholic politicking public, subsequently colouring the conflict vetween Maitland and Huntly with confessional politics. Events excalated until Huntly mustered troops on the field of Brig o' Dee near Aberdeen, Although Huntly refused to meet the king on the field, Maitland's vitory was only parial. Brig o' Dee was not the manifestation of the politics of the Counter-Reformation in Scotland, but the productof years of faction fighting between Maitland and Huntly. The period of January 1590 to March 1595 was characterised by Hunrly's continuing influence at Court with marked favour from James and his bloodfeud with James Stewart, second earl of Moray. Huntly used his twin centres of influnce, the Court and power in the region, to fight a vivious and protacted bloodfeud with Moray and his faction. The interception of the Spanish Blanks at the end of 1592 brought confessional politics to bear on a purely secular bloodfeud. Political agitation from the Kirk and Stewarts caused James to commission an army under Archibald Campbell, seventh earl of Argyll to pursue Huntly in October 1594. The result was the battle of Glenlivet between Huntly and Argyll which came to represent the fight against Catholicism, although its root cause was Huntly's bloodfeud with Moray and the Stewarts. When James later raised his own army and marched north against Huntly, the early refused to face James on the field and in March 1595 he voluntarily went into exile abroad. This ended the most active phase of huntly's participation in national and international politics; after his political rehabilitation in 1597, he no longer played an influential role in the king's domestic or foreign policies. Overall, the thesis agues that Huntly needs to be understood as a political faction leader, whose Catholicism was a tool he eomplyed to widen his political influence but not the determinant of all his actions.

Full text

Abstract:

The Caledonian mafic and ultramafic intrusions of the Grampian region of N.E. Scotland are a suite of synorogenic tholeiitic plutons of mid-Ordovician Age. They include layered cumulates, granular gabbronorites, quartz biotite norites and xenolithic contact facies lithologies. They postdate two regional deformation events in the enclosing Late Precambrian Dalradian metasediments, but are themselves locally deformed by a major regional ductile shear zone system. A detailed study of the Huntly-Knock area was undertaken combining geological mapping, petrological, geochemical and stable isotope techniques. In the study area, layered peridotitic to gabbroic cumulates, transitional cumulate types, granular gabbronorites quartz biotite norites and complex xenolithic contact facies rock types are present as a series of disrupted bodies formed by multiple intrusive events and subsequent deformation of a laccolithic and sheeted intrusive complex. Progressive cryptic fractionation trends are observed from basal peridotites to quartz biotite norites in the 'roof' of the intrusion. The chemistry and mineralogy of the rocks places them in the Lower and Middle Zone of the regional Younger Basic 'stratigraphy', although isolated pockets of Upper Zone may occur. Fine grained disseminated Fe-Ni-Cu sulphides are widespread throughout the mafic and ultramafic rock types. Richer sulphide concentrations locally occur as: gabbronorite hosted disseminated to massive bodies in the structurally complex, Littlemill-Auchencrieve contact zone; disseminated horizons within cumulates; disseminated to submassive graphite-rich pods in pyroxenitic pegmatites. The sulphide assemblage is dominated by pyrrhotite with minor pentlandite and chalcopyrite. Sulphide textures are attributed to magmatic processes with local modification by ductile deformation and hydrothermal reworking. Field, textural and Cu/Cu+Ni relations of certain submassive-massive sulphides is consistent with their derivation from an ultramafic parent. Maximum Ni and Cu levels are 3.02% and 6.46% respectively. The highest combined Pt+Pd+Au values occur in remobilised net sulphide (574ppb) and graphitic pyroxenite (700ppb). These metal values are generally low and comparable to other orogenic Caledonian intrusions. Sulphide immiscibility occurred many times during cooling of the tholeiitic parent magma(s), however early sulphide melts are generally of most economic importance. While there is abundant evidence for magma/country rock interaction, only locally is there evidence for involvement of metasediment sulphur, the system being dominated by a magmatic signature. In the Littlemill-Auchencrieve contact zone, crustal involvement may have been the principal factor controlling sulphide immiscibility. Subsequent hydrothermal reworking within ductile shear zones under amphibolite facies metamorphic conditions modified metal values. Depletion, especially of Au, Pt and Pd was mainly observed but local significant zones of enrichment may also be present.

Abstract:

The Great European Witch Hunt swept across Europe from the fifteenth through seventeenth centuries, but the nature of these witch hunts differed from country to country. These differences can be attributed to the fulfillment, or lack thereof, of the preconditions to the Great European Witch Hunt: the adoption of the inquisitorial judicial procedure, the use of torture, the movement of witchcraft trials to secular and local courts, a belief in maleficium facilitated by a pact with Satan, a belief that witches met in large groups to perform anti-human rituals at the sabbat and the belief in the witch’s ability to fly to such Satanic meetings. These preconditions were largely fulfilled on the Continent, while they were only partially fulfilled in England and in Scotland, and more-so in Scotland than in England. The result is that the Great European Witch Hunt took a much more extreme form on the European Continent than it did in England or Scotland, and it was more severe in Scotland than in England.

Abstract:

This essay traces the rapid agitated reception of Peterloo in Scotland, especially in the lowland west among the skilled working class. It also looks at the responses of Scottish Tory writers, in the reactionary mindsets of Walter Scott and William Motherwell and in the more nuanced treatment by John Galt. The emotion and wider political issues surrounding the release of Henry Hunt from jail are particularly focused upon via the proceedings of a convivial meeting at the Saracen Head inn in Paisley in 1822. As part of the detail of the network of Scottish public response to Peterloo, other events including especially the so-called 'Radical War' in Scotland of 1820 and its subsequent commemoration are sketched.

Abstract:

Although both the Mesolithic and Neolithic of western Scotland have been studied since the early 20th century, our knowledge of both periods remains limited, as does our understanding of the transition between them – whether this is entirely cultural in nature or involves the arrival of new Neolithic populations and the demise of the indigenous Mesolithic hunter-gatherers. The existing data provide seemingly contradictory evidence, with that from dietary analysis of skeletal remains suggesting population replacement and that from settlement and technology indicating continuity. After reviewing this evidence, this chapter briefly describes ongoing fieldwork in the Inner Hebrides that aims to gain a more complete understanding of Mesolithic settlement patterns, without which there can only be limited progress on understanding the Mesolithic–Neolithic transition.

Abstract:

Why research Palaeolithic and Mesolithic Scotland? Palaeolithic and Mesolithic archaeology sheds light on the first colonisation and subsequent early inhabitation of Scotland. It is a growing and exciting field where increasing Scottish evidence has been given wider significance in the context of European prehistory. It extends over a long period, which saw great changes, including substantial environmental transformations, and the impact of, and societal response to, climate change. The period as a whole provides the foundation for the human occupation of Scotland and is crucial for understanding prehistoric society, both for Scotland and across North-West Europe. Within the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic periods there are considerable opportunities for pioneering research. Individual projects can still have a substantial impact and there remain opportunities for pioneering discoveries including cemeteries, domestic and other structures, stratified sites, and for exploring the huge evidential potential of water-logged and underwater sites. Palaeolithic and Mesolithic archaeology also stimulates and draws upon exciting multi-disciplinary collaborations. Panel Task and Remit The panel remit was to review critically the current state of knowledge and consider promising areas of future research into the earliest prehistory of Scotland. This was undertaken with a view to improved understanding of all aspects of the colonization and inhabitation of the country by peoples practising a wholly hunter-fisher-gatherer way of life prior to the advent of farming. In so doing, it was recognised as particularly important that both environmental data (including vegetation, fauna, sea level, and landscape work) and cultural change during this period be evaluated. The resultant report, outlines the different areas of research in which archaeologists interested in early prehistory work, and highlights the research topics to which they aspire. The report is structured by theme: history of investigation; reconstruction of the environment; the nature of the archaeological record; methodologies for recreating the past; and finally, the lifestyles of past people – the latter representing both a statement of current knowledge and the ultimate aim for archaeologists; the goal of all the former sections. The document is reinforced by material on-line which provides further detail and resources. The Palaeolithic and Mesolithic panel report of ScARF is intended as a resource to be utilised, built upon, and kept updated, hopefully by those it has helped inspire and inform as well as those who follow in their footsteps. Future Research The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarized under four key headings:  Visibility: Due to the considerable length of time over which sites were formed, and the predominant mobility of the population, early prehistoric remains are to be found right across the landscape, although they often survive as ephemeral traces and in low densities. Therefore, all archaeological work should take into account the expectation of Palaeolithic and Mesolithic ScARF Panel Report iv encountering early prehistoric remains. This applies equally to both commercial and research archaeology, and to amateur activity which often makes the initial discovery. This should not be seen as an obstacle, but as a benefit, and not finding such remains should be cause for question. There is no doubt that important evidence of these periods remains unrecognised in private, public, and commercial collections and there is a strong need for backlog evaluation, proper curation and analysis. The inadequate representation of Palaeolithic and Mesolithic information in existing national and local databases must be addressed.  Collaboration: Multi-disciplinary, collaborative, and cross- sector approaches must be encouraged – site prospection, prediction, recognition, and contextualisation are key areas to this end. Reconstructing past environments and their chronological frameworks, and exploring submerged and buried landscapes offer existing examples of fruitful, cross-disciplinary work. Palaeolithic and Mesolithic archaeology has an important place within Quaternary science and the potential for deeply buried remains means that geoarchaeology should have a prominent role.  Innovation: Research-led projects are currently making a substantial impact across all aspects of Palaeolithic and Mesolithic archaeology; a funding policy that acknowledges risk and promotes the innovation that these periods demand should be encouraged. The exploration of lesser known areas, work on different types of site, new approaches to artefacts, and the application of novel methodologies should all be promoted when engaging with the challenges of early prehistory.  Tackling the ‘big questions’: Archaeologists should engage with the big questions of earliest prehistory in Scotland, including the colonisation of new land, how lifestyles in past societies were organized, the effects of and the responses to environmental change, and the transitions to new modes of life. This should be done through a holistic view of the available data, encompassing all the complexities of interpretation and developing competing and testable models. Scottish data can be used to address many of the currently topical research topics in archaeology, and will provide a springboard to a better understanding of early prehistoric life in Scotland and beyond.
