The Recent Discovery of a Lake-Dwelling on the Clyde - Unveiling Scotland's Ancient Secrets
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the excitement and intrigue surrounding the recent discovery of a long-lost lake-dwelling on the banks of the River Clyde. The lithograph, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, provides us with fascinating sketches depicting various aspects of this remarkable excavation. As we delve into these illustrations, we are transported back to October 1898 when The Illustrated London News first unveiled this groundbreaking find. Archaeologists meticulously measure and work at the site, unearthing remnants that shed light on ancient Scottish civilization. From canoes to refuse mounds, each discovery adds another piece to unraveling their way of life. The sketches reveal different segments of this extraordinary structure; from breakwaters projecting towards the west to upper pavements supported by sturdy beams and pile points. The circumference showcases an impressive formation that once stood proudly amidst Dumbuck Crannog in Scotland. Through careful recording and analysis, archaeologists strive to understand how our ancestors lived within these lake-dwellings centuries ago. This engraving serves as a testament to their dedication in uncovering history's hidden treasures. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we now have access to this visual time capsule—a glimpse into a world long forgotten yet forever preserved through artistry and exploration.
