The Nine Quines

A group of archaeologists gathers in the shadow of a precious and unique national monument, The Nine Quines, a group of standing stones on a peninsula in a remote Scottish sea-loch, their University having been given permission to carry out a dig which would not normally be allowed at such a sensitive site, on the condition that the dig is also part of a re-enactment project, foisted on them by their University’s marketing department, and destined to be filmed in real-time by a TV company intent on marketing the result world-wide, and sharing the profits.
