The Real History of (Clan) Gunn by Alastair Gunn I have just published a simplified version of my The Gunns: History, Myths and Genealogy and it is called The real history of (Clan) Gunn. It's a 59 page 8 inches by 5 inches paperback. It also comes in an eBook version. For how to buy these books please see www.lulu.com/spotlight/awgunn Gunns are the original, non-related inhabitants of northern mainland Scotland. They have no Orkney islands origin. Gunns are not a Clan as they had no founding father and nor did they have historic Chiefs. The first Gunn known was Coroner Gunn of Caithness (often wrongly called Crowner Gunn) who died around 1450. His eldest son started the MacHamish Gunns of Killernan line which still exists today and whose line is explored in detail in this book.

Just thought I'd let you know. The Latheron inscription which I translated along with the reminder of the Jackson Pictish ogham corpus, is composed as an "isolating language" indicative of being a pidgin. The Lexifer is Old Irish whereas the morphology and grammar are not.
