This amazing find inspired me to make this wee illustration, I found it very evocative to imagine the early medieval churchyard at Govan could be a hive of activity and craft workers. Not just stone carving but jewellery as well

📰 BREAKING NEWS! 🚨 Early Medieval Jewellery Unearthed at Govan Old! 💍 🪏 Archaeologists and community volunteers on an excavation in the 1,500-year-old churchyard of Govan Old, Glasgow, have unearthed evidence of an early medieval jewellery workshop and the carving of finger rings from shale.
