考古学学生Jodie Allan在苏格兰费夫(Fife)东Lomond山堡 发现一个罕见的Pictish脸部雕刻, Archaeology student Jodie Allan discovered a possible rare Pictish face carving at East Lomond hill fort in Fife, Scotland, while volunteering on a dig. 在早期中世纪建筑的土壤中发现的10-12厘米石头显示两只眼睛、一只鼻子和一根发线,可能代表着人的脸。 The 10-12cm stone, found in soil from an early medieval building, shows two eyes, a nose, and a hairline, and may represent a human face. 该发现最初被误认为是渣子,并补充了东洛蒙德是一个重要的Pictish定居点的证据。 The find, initially mistaken for slag, adds to evidence that East Lomond was a significant Pictish settlement. 包括戈登·诺贝尔教授和乔·菲茨帕特里克(Joe Fitzpatrick)在内的研究人员将利用放射性碳约会和艺术历史比较来更多地了解雕刻的年龄和背景,并有可能为皮克特人如何理解和表达其身份提供新的见解。 Researchers, including Professor Gordon Noble and Joe Fitzpatrick, will use radiocarbon dating and art historical comparisons to learn more about the carving’s age and context, potentially offering new insights into how Picts understood and represented their identities.
