Duncan Williamson began traveling here and there in Scotland on his own, locally at first and then farther afield, not long after he left school at age 14. Here he tells of an incident when, needing shelter, he spent the night in a prehistoric grave site, an impressive megalithic tomb in the neighborhood of Kilmartin, Argyll. Archaeologists had left open to the skies after excavating it some years before. Williamson attributed the building of this tomb to the Picts, an ancient people whom he viewed as his ancestors. He felt at ease there.
