Scotland's Stone of Destiny is the most famous symbol of both Scottish nationhood and the British monarchy. Nick Aitchison has produced a fully updated, researched and illustrated study of its history, mythology and cultural significance. Having first traced the origin, evolution and function of myths surrounding the Stone and the ancient prophecy that gives the Stone its name, Aitchison examines the Stone itself – its appearance, geology and source – and reveals the Stone's original function and the origins of its symbolic sanctity. Scotland's Stone of Destiny discusses the much-disputed issue of authenticity, and finally places it in a wider context with reference to the Stone's significance to the creation of the Scottish parliament and the destiny of the Scots.
