Ancient Monumentsculture

Ancient monuments ranging from Neolithic tombs to Viking boat burials are common sights in the Isle of Man. Pictured left is a stunning tomb at Cashtal yn Ard in the north of the Island. Some of these historic sites occupy dramatic locations on high land or on cliffside lookouts. Cultural influences in the Island originate from the indigenous Celts (who were converted to Christianity around 500 AD) and the Vikings who arrived in the Island around 800 AD. The resultant fusion of cultures is still evident in the archaeology, language, place-names and Parliamentary traditions of the Island.
