George Petrie, Orkney lawyer and antiquarian<br />George Petrie (1818-1875), factor of the Graemeshall Estate<br />Perhaps Petrie’s greatest contribution, however, was his reappraisal of various types of monument. In a quite radical article in 1863 he questioned the all consuming ‘Picts’ houses’ category of site, stating that they were ‘simply chambered tombs which have been despoiled of their original contents at an early date’ (1863a). Despite being involved in over 30 excavations from 1847 till his death in 1875, Petrie failed to develop his excavation techniques
