Scotland’s history doesn’t begin—it emerges, out of mist, blood, and war. The Romans came in 84 AD, pushing their empire to the edge of the known world, halting at the Antonine Wall. But even they couldn’t tame the land beyond. Because something older stirred there—something wilder.

Who were the Picts, these shadowy, painted warriors who vanished from history but left their symbols carved in stone? Who were the Gaels and the Scotti, forging kingdoms in a land soaked in strife? And when the Vikings came—ruthless and relentless—how did their invasion scar the bones of this ancient realm?

Join Keith Hockton as he ventures into the darkness of Scotland’s earliest past—into a world of forgotten tribes, shattered empires, and the violent birth of a nation.
