This week, we built on our knowledge about Castles by using some of the resources from the Glasgow Science Centre.\u00a0 We worked as forensic scientists to find out information from the bones of a skeleton that was found under the floorboards of the chapel in Stirling Castle.\u00a0 The skeleton was one of ten found during renovations in 1987.\u00a0 Looking at information about isotopes in its bones told scientists what he ate and where he came from.\u00a0 They even worked out exactly who it might be… Sir john de Stricheley who died in 1341!<\/p>\n
