Binaural Audio WorldHillhead HarbourToday's episode was recorded at Hillhead harbour, a very small harbour next to a nature reserve. There are ducks, swans and geese from the nearby nature reserve in the water, and cylclists, joggers, dog walkers and cars on the mainly quiet road behind me. I hope the sound of the wind hitting the rigging and masts of the boats in the water is soothing.

Highland Objects PodcastsThe Trepanned SkullIn 1903 an excavation at Hillhead Broch, a rather morbid discovery was made: a fragment of a human’s skull. This portion of bone – a fragment of the ‘parietal’ section of the skull – was notable for the presence of three drilled holes, which were set out in a roughly triangular shape. It is thought that the skull had been modified ‘post-mortem’. Why? Location: National Museum of Scotland, Chambers St, Edinburgh EH1 1JF Hosted on Acast.
