"The picts were an ancient people native to Scotland in the middle ages and in many way the reason Scots still exist. The mystery surrounding them is intoxicating, the only recorded written history of their existence comes from Roman and Viking encounters. Labelled 'painted people' aka picts due to the blue pigment and tattoo work that covered their bodies, they were hardy warriors who fought off countless invasions. Pictish stone carvings are the lasting evidence of their existence by their own hand, scattered allover Monoliths across the east coast of Scotland, the markings similar to Ogham but near impossible to fully understand. They managed to master carving granite, a very tough stone to work with, but not easily weathered thus it holds their carvings to this day. They worshiped many dieties as Pagans, adopting varying gods along the way, however eventually were converted by the sweeping wave of Christian influence. It is just one example of many indigenous cultures being written out of history to this day, culturally eradicated and/ or displaced. History repeats and loops through the ages." @cbloxx_ July 16, 2024
