CAIRN OF UNSTAN. 303 feet in height, and built of larger stones than those used in the interior. " The entrance passage, which was still partly covered, ter- minated in a chamber 2 1 feet long by 5 feet wide (over which the roof had fallen), divided into various compart- ments by large flagstones set on edge, as shown on the accompanying ground-plan (fig. 197). The side compartment opening from the main chamber may be closely paralleled with that in the cairn of Bruan previously referred to. " ...Un- Fig. 197. — Ground-plan of chambered cairn at Unstan, Orkney {about jfifeet in diameter). like the rest of the building, with the exception of the passage, the roof is here entire, its height being 3 feet 6^ inches. A rude floor is made by a flagstone small enough to have been introduced after the chamber was completed, and supported on blocks of stone. There were two distinct burials here in the contracted posture, one of the skulls being the most complete of any of those found, though scarcely half remained.
