Légende
'Obelisk at Forres', Moray, Scotland, 1821. Known as Sueno's Stone, this 23 foot high carved standing stone is thought to have been erected sometime between c800 and 1000, possibly to commemorate victory in a battle over the Picts by Kenneth McAlpin, the first King of the Scots. Since the early 1990s it has been encased in armoured glass in order to protect it from erosion and graffiti. From A Voyage Around Great Britain Undertaken between the Years 1814 and 1825 by William Daniell.
