Skeleton representing death, pointing an arrow at an old woman, carving from a stone tombstone, 17th century, from Arbroath Abbey, founded in 1178 by King William the Lion and consecrated 1197, for a group of Tironensian Benedictine monks from Kelso Abbey, in Arbroath, Angus, Scotland. Pictures and symbols were often used rather than words on gravestones as many people were illiterate. The Declaration of Scottish Independence is believed to have been written at the abbey by Abbot Bernard in 1320. The building is now managed by Historic Scotland. Picture by Manuel Cohen
