Culzean Castle, Hillhead

Lithic Implement (prehistoric)

What is recorded here

The stone edge still carries the shape of hands that struck, scraped or cut, while later visitors walk past unaware they near a forgotten maker. What the castle displays as grandeur, the ground remembers as practice: a small sharp tool dropped or discarded, waiting for someone to imagine the arm behind it.
