The station of Parkhill, on the Great North of Scotland Railway, is seven and a half miles from Aberdeen, and the cist which is the subject of these notes was situated in a mound of gravel and sand to the north-east of, and within one or two hundred yards of, the station. This is the second which has been uncovered at the same spot,—a previous one having been disclosed in 1867, the contents of which—a vase and some bones—are preserved in the Anatomical Museum, Marischal College, University of Aberdeen.
