Dunadd, strong hold of Dalriada-kingdom of the Scots.
-
Dunadd is one of the most famous historique sites in Scotland. By tradition it was the capital of the early Scottish kingdom of Dalriada, funded by king Fergus Mor in about AD 500, and the probable site where the kings were inaugurated.
-
It is a complex fortification, defended by four lines of walling on different levels. These structures appear to have been built about AD 500 and 900. Objects found in excavations show that the site was particularly important around AD 500. It was a centre for fine metal working. The main approach is up rocky defile to the lowest terrace which has a well defined wall. Near the north end is a solidly built wall.
-
Above this level the walls are more ruinous. The most remarkable feature is a series of carvings on a rock slab near the summit.
-
There is the figure of a boar, the outline of a foot print, a rock cut, basin and several lines of ogam inscriptions in an unknown language. The basin and foot print may have been used in the inauguration of the kings of Dalriada.
