The Scottish Archaeological Research Framework (ScARF)

The Scottish Archaeological Research Framework (ScARF) launched in 2012 as a snapshot of the then current state of knowledge regarding Scotland’s past. It is designed to be constantly updated and added to as our archaeological knowledge grows. Its Scottish Heritage Hub website is a live resource, constantly updated, edited and improved by researchers in heritage organisations, universities and commercial companies and independent scholars.
