“Carrickstone”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The historical etymology of Carrickstone's name is uncertain although it is now undoubtedly tied to the Roman altar.^[3]

History

Carrickstone is named after the only Roman altar still in the open air in Scotland.^[4]^[5] John Watson in the New Statistical Account of Scotland described the stone long before the modern settlement took shape.^[6] The stone has also been linked with Robert Bruce, being the place where he reportedly set up his standard on his way to Bannockburn.^[7] There is a some evidence that coffins were laid on top of the stone on their way to the cemetery in Kirkintilloch^[8] and that the stone has been somewhat worn away.^[9] Several old documents show Carrickstone including maps by Charles Ross,^[10] and William Roy.^[11]
