The Painted People of Early Scotland

Known to the Romans as “the painted ones,” the Picts were fierce, independent warriors, often tattooed or decorated with blue body markings. This set represents the unarmoured majority of their warbands—light infantry who fought with axes, spears, and small round shields.
