This report presents the work of three HES teams:
- a condition assessment carried out by specialist stone conservators.
- a scientific investigation by specialist heritage scientists.
- 3D digitisation undertaken by digital documentation specialists.
It outlines the discoveries made by these new investigations, why such measures are important for the future of the Stone, and the essential role of modern technology in conserving Scotland’s heritage.
This introduction was adapted from the 2024 Statement of Significance for the Stone of Destiny.
