Scott is a substantial early‑20th‑century scholarly study of the Picts, one of the most enigmatic peoples of early Scotland. First published in 1918, this work explores Pictish origins, language, culture, political structure, and—most notably—the distinctive character of the Pictish Church before its absorption into Roman Christianity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;\"\u003eDrawing extensively on early manuscripts, archaeology, and ecclesiastical sources, Scott examines figures such as St. Ninian, Candida Casa (Whithorn), and the interaction between the Picts, Scots, Britons, and later Vikings.
