What is recorded here

Moniack Castle keeps a schist boulder where a walking man and faint cupmarks still touch the moss. The stone left the Balblair area to stand inside a castle rockery, carrying layers of Neolithic, Bronze Age and Pictish time into one guarded place. It is not a display tray or a forgotten relic; it is a living marker, moved once and still speaking through its scars.
