| 520 | _a"Notice of Runic Inscriptions Discovered during Recent Excavations in the Orkneys" by James Farrer is a historical publication written in the mid-19th century. This book documents the findings from the excavation of Maes-howe, a notable Neolithic burial site in Orkney, Scotland. The primary focus of the book is the discovery and analysis of Runic inscriptions that were found within the site, shedding light on the cultural and historical significance of the chamber. In the text, Farrer recounts the process of excavation undertaken in 1861, detailing the structure of Maes-howe, its dimensions, and the various chambers contained within. He describes the methodology used during the excavation alongside observations made by prominent antiquarians. As the excavation progresses, inscriptions begin to emerge, indicating Viking presence and various engravings of notable names, including references to mythological figures and potential historical individuals. The book ultimately aims to provide insight into the significance of these inscriptions, speculating on their origins, dating, and context within Viking history while hoping to inspire further scholarly interest in Runic literature.
