Fiona is this written in lots of long slanting lines? There was something like that on the side of a pictish cross on Digging for Britain. I notice they didnt translate it :0)

Hi Martin! That's ogham script, which can be used to write in different languages (like our alphabet), but was mostly used to write Old Irish. The inscription on the Old Kilmadock stone (from Digging for Britain) hasn't been translated yet, but it may turn out to be in Pictish rather than Old Irish.
Thanks Fiona. Digging for Britain is a out my level in this area I'm afraid, but I do find the archeology/historical sl research fascinating. All the best with your studies :0)
