Tha arc-eòlaichean, eachdraichean, luchd-saidheans is eòlaichean ann an gnàth-aimsir is ann an saidheansan nàdarra an dòchas gum faigh iad, aig a’ cheann thall, air eachdraidh iomlan na h-Alba a chlàradh, le bhith a’ toirt an cuid rannsachaidh is an fhiosrachaidh còmhla ann an aon àite.

Tha iad air leabhar-iùil grafaigeach ann an stoidhle nobhail, - Telling Scotland’s Story - a dheasachadh. ‘S e an dealbhadair èibhinn Albannach, Sha Nazir, bho Black Hearted Press, a rinn na dealbhan agus chaidh mìneachadh a’ phròiseict a chur ann an sgrìobhadh le James Crawford, Manaidsear Conaltraidh RCAHMS.

English Translation: Experts from a wide range of disciplines are pooling their skills and knowledge in a bid to piece together a comprehensive record of Scotland’s past.

Archaeologists, historians, scientists and specialists in climatology and the natural sciences hope that by bringing their research and data together in one place, they’ll be able, eventually, to map out the history of Scotland in its entirety.

They’ve produced a graphic novel-style guide - Telling Scotland’s Story - illustrated by the Scottish comic artist Sha Nazir of Black Hearted Press and written by RCAHMS Communications Manager James Crawford, to explain the project.

The guide has just been translated into Gaelic and will now be distributed to all Gaelic speaking schools across Scotland.
