| Summary | "Scotland in Pagan Times; The Iron Age" by Joseph Anderson is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work comprises a series of lectures focusing on the archaeological investigations of the Pagan period in Scotland, especially during the Iron Age. It aims to explore burial customs and artifacts from this era, providing insights into the culture and civilization of the time. The opening of the text sets the stage for a detailed examination of burial practices, distinctively separating Christian and Pagan customs, with Anderson emphasizing the archaeological importance of grave goods and cremation in Pagan burials. He discusses the transition from Pagan to Christian burial practices in Scotland, illustrated by the survival of certain elements in Christian ceremonies that have their roots in Pagan traditions. The section introduces foundational concepts, highlighting the significance of burial customs in understanding human culture, and suggests a methodical approach to analyzing archaeological evidence from this period.
